I have a moment of brain shortage, right now I can't see the forest for all the trees. Is it possible from within an object to know what is the name it's instantiated as? Given this code
loCountries = NewObject('SqlTable','SQL.vcx')
In this case I want the class SqlTable to understand that it's instantiated as loCountries. I am building a rather complicated generic class to work with SQL tables. My idea is that if I call the object for instance loCountries, my class can be smart enough to know that I want it to connect to the SQL table called Countries.
