One solution is to add a gadget to your form and use the API to set
it's data to the global data for the form:
pGlobals = MemPtrNew(sizeof(MyGlobalType));
// Check errors and set data values
FrmSetGadgetData(pForm, uwGadgetID, pGlobals);
Then when you need a global:
pData = FrmGetGadgetData(pForm, uwGadgetID);
When the form is closed, the system automatically takes care of
disposing of the form's objects, including any chunk attached to a
gadget.
