Well, you have a menu item, in your global menu, that does the corresponding lookup. You define a shortcut for it.
To access the current form, you would use _vfp.ActiveForm. You can also use _vfp.ActiveForm.ActiveControl, but that
does not show correctly in the debugger.
To avoid problems with datasessions, you should have a method on your form (defined in the base class for all your forms, of course), and call the form method from your menu shortcut (_vfp.ActiveForm.MyLookup()).
HTH, Hilmar.
