The 'verbs' property


Read-only, nested vector of character vectors

Valid for: OCX controls and OLEContainer (Implemented under Windows only)

The verbs property returns a nested vector of the application-specific 'verbs' which the server application defines. Each verb is a character string giving the name of an action which the control can perform (possibly with an ampersand character to indicate a menu mnemonic character).

You can use this information to instruct the external control to carry out a specific operation, using the DoVerb method. The parameter which you pass to DoVerb corresponds to the position (in index origin 1) of the name of the operation in the verbs property.

There are also pre-defined standard verbs identified by 0 or negative IDs. These do not appear in the verbs property.

See the DoVerb method for more information.
