You are going to have to explore the window relationships using Home row
mode to determine if there is a reliable path that you can use from the
main application windows to get to this window.

Perhaps you can cause this window to be opened from the
AutoStartEvent.

Once the window has been opened, maybe you can store the handle of the
window to a global variable for use from other areas of the
application.

I hope this gives you some ideas on how to proceed.
