Thanks for the comments, but I'm still confused. Perhaps some specificity to my original question would help:

A text field also has elements such as "movie view" and
"progress indicator." What does this mean, and how can I
use this information?

How can a text field contain a movie view or a progress indicator?

Not sure which application you're talking about but I presume it's a database of some kind.

No, it's the AppleScriptKit.asdictionary, viewable in AppleScript Studio. When you look at that dictionary, each class has a list of elements and properties. For a text field, there are elements "movie view" and "progress indicator," among dozens of others. I don't understand why those things are listed there or what good that information is. A text field has some relationship with a progress indicator? Makes no sense.

Should I be asking about this on the ASS list? (There's nobody home there now anyway -- I think they are all watching the war on CNN :-)
