We'll that's not exactly true, but it's not something an end user
should
be doing. But the basic jist is the Activation wraps the AgendaItem if
you can get access to that it has a Tuple field, this references the
chaines of tuples that make up the row of data. you can iterate that
chain and each one has a handle field which you can match up with the
facthandle you are searching for. Further more each tuple references the
join node it was added via, which also has an index number, so you can
deduce the pattern from there. However I seriously doubt this is what
you want, and you probably need to think harder about your use case.
