## 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.
