TorqueX GUI Question

I have to say that I am much more impressed with the GUI system in TorqueX than in TGB. Though I didn't have much GUI experience in TGB, I really enjoy TorqueX's content controlling etc. But not everything is perfect, thus my question is this:

I have created a simple GUISceneview class that implements the IGUIscreen interface. Normally you would create some HUD stuff (ie. score) in the constructor of this class but I need to be able to access this stuff from other classes as to be able to change the text that is displayed. Initially I was simply going to make the GUIText control that I wanted to access a public property, however, I could not figure out a way to access it through the GUICanvas. Next I figured I could just create the score text at the same time as I initialize the rest of the objects in my scene but this would require setting the Folder of the GUIText to be the same as the loaded GUI content in order for it to be displayed. Unfortunately, I could not figure this out as well.

Maybe?
scoretext.Folder = GUICanvas.Instance.Manager.CurrentFolder;
but that doesn't seem to do the trick.

Any ideas?
Let me know if I need to clarify.
