You should easily be able to do it this way:

oControlBizObj = thisform.cControlBizObj && for a local variable
thisform.oControlBizObj = thisform.cControlBizObj && for form property

>A control (cControlBizObj) property is "MyBizObj". MyBizObj is a bizness object on the form and is already created (it exist as an object). How can I can an object reference to the cControlBizObj and stuff it into a property (oControlBizObj) or a local variable?.

However, in trying to make it more generic I have encountered a problem: control data belonging to a child bizobj. Have to know bizobj the control is bound to in order to call the proper business rule upon exiting the control.
