Calling all XView-2.0 experts ...

Question: Is there a function for accessing a particular Panel_item from
		  a bunch of Panel_items of a panel (without iterating using the
		  PANEL_EACH_ITEM/PANEL_END_EACH/PANEL_FIRST_ITEM/PANEL_NEXT_ITEM
		  procedures)?

Question: Is there a function for accessing a particular Panel_item from
		  a bunch of Panel_items of a panel using the variable name used
		  for that Panel_item?

			Ex. (Panel_item) xv_get(my_panel, my_panel_item_variable_name);

Reason:	I know the name of a Panel_item (rule_name_item) and I also know 
		that this Panel_item is owned by a panel (display_panel). I wish
		to get the Panel_item using the string "rule_name_item" and the
		Panel display_panel.

Thanks for listening.
