Set Command

Syntax

set the <propertyName> [of <object>] to <value>

Description

The set command changes the value of the specified property of an object. Properties can be standard, custom, or global. The set command is used to change a property value, and the complementary get command retrieves the current value of a property.

Notes

Always use the set command to assign a value to a property. The put command cannot be used to assign a value to a property because properties are not containers.
