Get a specific instance of a page object and assign to page variable

Hi all,

I have two Pages, one being an actual Page, lets call x, and the other being a CardPart, lets call y, that sits in page x. For those wondering, x and y source tables are of same type, and the part/page are linked via primary key.

I have made it so x calls a function which is in y. The function is very simple and sets a global variable in y to the value of the argument (argument of the function). y has an action that works with the global variable, for simplicity sake lets just say it sends a message of the variable value.

My first issue is when testing this out, I could see that the argument passed was being recognized in the called function in y, but when clicking the action, the message showing the value was empty. I figured it has something to do with different instances but could not confirm. Eventually I found that you actually can access the instance of the page part by using CurrPage.'Pagename'... -- Now with a little backstory time for my actual issue:

I am trying to get y to now interact back with x but I am having the same issue with the different instances (or so I think). Before when working in x, I could access y's instance because y is a PagePart in x, but how can I make it so in y, I can call a function in x (which is the same instance of x that y is currently in)?

Hope that was clear enough, let me know if anyone needs any clarification,

thanks,

Jaden
