Hello,

Does anyone have any idea why this wouldn't work? I'm guessing it's
because the Apple Menu is kind of an odd menu, programatically, but
maybe my syntax is off? Or is there a better way to do this?

try
        tell application "System Events"
                tell process "Finder"
                        tell menu bar 1
                                tell menu bar item "Apple"
                                        tell menu "Apple"
                                                tell menu bar item "Recent Items"
                                                        tell menu "Recent Items"
                                                                click menu item "Clear Menu"
                                                        end tell
                                                end tell
                                        end tell
                                end tell
                        end tell
                end tell
        end tell
end try
