For more information on how the action and its arguments work, see the action topic.
If you leave the objecttype and objectname arguments blank (the default constant, acActiveDataObject, is assumed for objecttype), the active object is assumed.
You can leave an optional argument blank in the middle of the syntax, but you must include the argument's comma. If you leave one or more trailing arguments blank, don't use a comma following the last argument you specify.
