Thank you Andrew Oliver for the info regarding manipulating object properties. It`s all starting to make more sense to me.

command"

That's because there *is* no "set visible" command.

As far as System Events is concerned, 'visible' is a property of an
application object. Therefore you manipulate this property in the same way
you would manipulate any other object properties or script variable.

The problem here, of course, is that every application can have its own idea
of what properties are appropriate for any object, so if you look at any
other application's dictionary you'll see a different set of properties.
This makes it very difficult to document in an all-encompassing format.

Andrew
