Finding an object

I am trying to set the current canvas, but to do that i need to find it
first.

I am trying the following command to find the canvas named "HMS"


gROOT->GetListOfCanvases()->FindObject("HMS")

this howver returns a TObject not a TCanvas and so when I then try to do:

gROOT->GetListOfCanvases()->FindObject("HMS")->cd();

it fails saying there is no member function cd in TObject

is there a better way?
