This is different on the version of RR I am using (2.1.2) it has 4 types:

Scrollbar
Slider
Progressbar
Little Arrows

I tried it as you say and it works, but it just seems odd that I have 
to use the "Scrollbar" type instead of "Slider".

I always use the full name for the object, I got VERY confused when I 
started using the abbreviations! I think it would be a good option to 
have the IDE display the script as using the abbreviations or the 
full names via a preferences. It's really diffuicult for a newbie to 
get to know all the abbreviations.

Thanks for your help, it works a treat now!

Have a great weekend
