What I do in these situations is store the object reference as a custom
property of the popup button before I display it.
on mouseDown
...
set the uHeaderControl of button "Popup" to the dgHeaderControl of the
target
popup button "Popup"
end mouseDown
Then in the menuPick handler you have access to the object.
on menuPick pChosen
switch pChosen
case "something"
put the uHeaderControl of me into theHeaderControl
....
....
end menuPick
