Loading TestStand Engine reference into the runnable objects table

Has anyone ever used the Running Objects Table (ROT) to store the TestStand execution reference so other running programs have access to it?
 
I have a test sequence that instantiates an ActiveX Exe script engine, then calls the script engine using the activeX adapter steps to run script files.  I need to access TestStand context variables from inside one of these scripts, but I can only pass (space delimited) string parameters to the scripts, (I didn't write the interface...Smiley Mad)  so I don't believe I can pass ThisContext directly.
 
I'd really appreciate a reply from anyone who has experience storing TestStand references in the ROT (& knows whether this would work), or using any other method of making the TestStand reference available to another running program.
 
I don't really understand how the ROT works, but I found some DLL calls that register and unregister references in it.  I've stumbled about with trying it, but don't really understand what I'm doing.
 
thanks - Mark
