Using lookup wizard value in Before record update event

I would like access to the lookup wizard values for a field on the before record updated event. Is there an array like $values[] that contains the lookup wizard data from the edit page.
When I am creating the event I have access to $values[product_id] and I could take this value and make query to obtain the product_name from table products. But this would be very time consuming for each entry I need. On the edit page I have a lookup wizard that assigns the product id based on product_name so I'm hoping there might be a variable array like $lookupvalues[product_name] that I can pass into the event code.
Hope I made sense

Hi,
there is no array with all values from dropdown box on the Before record updated event.

You can give me more detailed description of what you need to achieve and I'll help you to write proper event code.
