Reference object instance created using “with” in Delphi

Question

is there a way to reference an object instance that is created using the \"with\" statement?

Example:

with TAnObject.Create do
begin
  DoSomething(in

An addition to Brian's example on a Notify handler is to use an absolute variable (win32 only):

procedure Notify( Sender : TObject ); 
var 
  Something : TSomeThing absolute Sender;
begin 
  if Sender is TSomething then 
  begin
    VerySimpleProperty := Something.Something;
    OtherProperty := Something.SomethingElse;
  end;
end;

It basically avoids having to assign a local variable or have a lot of type casts.
