How do I use a static handle to have multiple programs access variables and log data?

If you have a program (PROG-A) that creates a static handle, and you want to start another program (PROG-B) using the STAF start command, such that PROG-B can create variables and a log using that same handle. The problem is that each program has to know the number of the static handle in order to use it. You can do this via an environment variable.
