Lyle,
To bring up workflow associated to a form that isn't the primary form, you
would use the Working Lists feature introduced in the 7.5 Developer Studio
(especially the Related List type Working List).
Here is a snippet from the chapter that talks about Working Lists in the 7.5
Developer Studio guide (found at
http://documents.bmc.com/supportu/documents/53/81/95381/95381.pdf).
Working with working lists
Create a working list to keep references to objects that you need to view,
change, or export to complete an application development or maintenance task.
You can add and remove objects from working lists as you work with them.
Descriptions of your working lists are stored locally in your BMC Remedy
Developer Studio workspace. Working lists refer to objects on the AR System
server, but the server does not record any information about working lists or
an object's membership in them.
BMC Remedy Developer Studio has the following types of working lists:
_ View-by-form list-Contains one or more AR System forms and all objects
related to them.
_ Related list-Contains one or more AR System objects and optionally either
directly related objects or all related objects.
Every time you open a working list, the list is updated with the current
related objects. For example, if a filter is created that is associated with a
form in a view-by-form list, the new filter is included the next time that you
open the list.
NOTE
Although there is no limit on the number of objects in a working list, lists
with many objects, included related objects, are slower to open than lists with
fewer objects.
_ To create a view-by-form list
1 In the AR System Navigator, expand serverName, right-click Working Lists, and
choose New View by Form List.
2 In the New View by Form List dialog box, enter the List Name.
3 Click Add.
4 In the Form Selector dialog box, select one or more forms to include in the
list, and
click OK.
To filter the list of forms, type a pattern in the Name field. To move to a
form in the
list, type the first characters of the name in the Locate field.
Use the usual Windows methods to select multiple objects. For example, hold
down the CTRL key and click an item to select or deselect it.
5 Click OK to save the list.
_ To create a related list
1 In the server branch in the AR System Navigator, right-click Working Lists and
choose New Related List.
2 In New Related List dialog box, enter the List Name.
3 Click Add.
4 In the Add Items dialog box, select the objects to include in the list.
To filter the list of object, type a pattern in the Name field, select an
application
from the Application drop-down list, or clear the appropriate Object Category
check boxes. To move to a form in the list, type the first characters of the
name in
the Locate field.
5 In the Add Items with Related Property drop-down list , choose to add just the
objects selected, the object and directly related objects, the objects and all
related
objects, or, for applications and packing lists, the object and its contents.
See the information about exporting objects in the Form and Application Objects
Guide for descriptions of the related options.
6 Click OK.
7 In the Related List dialog box, to see which objects will be included in the
list, select
an object and click Show Related.
8 To remove an object and its related objects, select it in the list and click
Remove.
To remove all objects from the list, click Remove All.
9 To change which related objects are included in the list with the selected
object,
select the objects in the list and click and change the value in the Related
column
or click the buttons.
See the information about exporting objects in the Form and Application Objects
Guide for descriptions of related options.
10 Click OK to save the list.
Thanks

You could also do it fairly easily in Developer Studio, if you're brave enough
to use Developer Studio against a 7.1 server (I haven't really had any issues
so far). Developer Studio lets you easily filter workflow and forms based on
various criteria, one of which is the Primary Form for the workflow. I haven't
found a way to bring up workflow associated to a form that isn't the primary
form, though. That seems to be a drawback of Dev Studio. But then again, I
may just have missed that option...

Atif,
Since you say 'quickest' technically the AR Admin tool isn't the 'quickest' way
to find objects especially if you have all those OTB apps of ITSM installed..
The quickest way would be trying a
