Automation and ScriptingRe: Variations of the SILENT IGNORE Trap

From the original post: AI scripting - misleading log ... 

dt = Open("$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp");
kd = dt << KDTable("hello");
result = kd << K Nearest Rows(1, 3);print("finished");

JMP complains about line 3 : 

Object 'Data Table' does not recognize the message 'K Nearest Rows'

the actual error in line 2 is silently ignored.

dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );

script_name = "test";
dt << New Script( script_name, "1" );  //no issue with the variable<BR />
myGroupName = dt << group scripts( today_str, script_name );<BR />// No issue with the variable - even without a list<BR />
dt << Move Selected scripts( script_name, after( "Distribution" ) );<BR />//doesn't&nbsp;understand the&nbsp;variable&nbsp;->&nbsp;silent&nbsp;ignore
