of course not. AboutTestCheckbox was displayed modally. it is no longer the
current form. in fact it is not anything - it is history. so even if you had
saved the return value from the first call to GetObjectPtr, it would not
help you now.
you have a problem of design. the only value you get back from a modal
dialog is the ID of the button that was pushed.
