If you've lost a reference to an heap variable you can retrieve it with the
OBJ_VALID and PTR_VALID functions. When called with no arguments, they
return a list of all valid object/pointer heap variables. They both also
support a CAST keyword, which you can use to track down objects/pointers
given the ouput of the HELP command.

Another possibiility: if you have a GUI object, build a facility into the
code that will tell you its object reference.

But perhaps you should tell us more about what you are *really* trying to
do.
