|
| Notes |
This is a low-level verb intended to be used only with applications that support the Core suite of Apple Events. Typically, an application's verb table will include high-level verbs that correspond to all of the events that it supports, so scripts should not have to call the core verbs directly. The value for the where parameter should be obtained by calling one of the following objectModel verbs: beginningOf, endOf, before, after, or replace. Depending of the application and the particular type of object being created, the initialData, propertyData, and where parameters may or may not be required.
