Drop the AppleWorks application icon onto your Script Editor icon.
Read the dictionary.
For example:
tell application "AppleWorks 6" to make new document with data "Hello
World!"
You might also find this useful:
insert : Insert a file into a document
insert alias -- the file to insert
[at location reference] -- the location at which to insert the file
[using translator international text]
-- the name of the translator to use to import the document
[with fields a list of string]
-- the field order to use when inserting into
a database (use "" to skip a field)
