ahh! so the variable name then? don't think you can, unless it's passed to
the object manually

(please correct me if I'm wrong)

No because it isn't the name of the class I want it is the name of the
instance of the class...

(Untried, but FWIW--) I suppose you could loop through all defined vars,
testing whether they are objects, then asking each if the name of its class
is the same as the name of the current class...but why would one need this

What is the class instance name? Are you referring to the name of the
variable that holds the instance?

How do you determine the class instance name from within the class?
