How to Get HWND Handle for a Chart?

I need to create a new modeless window for my study and want it to be a child of the Chart Window that the study is added in so that when my chart closes, the new study window closes as well. I tried "EnumWindows" to get the chart specific handle but all the disconnected charts appear to have the same name "SCDW_FloatingChartClient" so I cannot identify my specific chart from that. I was thinking of saving it in a persistent pointer variable during the call to p_GDIFunction but I was hoping to find a more elegant solution. Is there a better way to catch the HWND of the chart that my study is in?
