Thanks for the reply, Yvan.

I understand and agree with your post.
But I am looking for a link to an official Apple document that states something like this.
I need this to give to new AppleScript users.

Best Regards,

As far as I know we may use :
Accessing Applications

  • By name
  • tell application "Mail" 
  • By bundle ID
  • tell application id "com.apple.mail"
  • By path
  • tell application "/Applications/Mail.app"
  • By process ID
  • never saw that 
  • On a remote machine
  • tell application "eppc://127.0.0.1/Mail"
  • Accessing the application that is running the script
  • tell current application
