The VFP's OOP is lacked here.

A possible workaround is:
add to the class a ThisObject property with

procedure ThisObject_Access
 RETURN m.This

and then

with SomeObject
  SomeFunction(.ThisObject, par2, par3)
endwith

A best VFP design is to support a WITHOBJ Reference

with SomeObject
  SomeFunction(WITHOBJ, par2, par3)
endwith
