SYS(1272) is I believe what you are looking for: it returns the object (not class hierarchy of the object reference.

If you had a form whose name property was Form1, that had a container on it (container1) that had a commandbutton on it (command1), sys(1270,{object references to command1}) would return the string form1.container1.command1

Is this what you were looking for?
