If you create a journal

Names Default to here(1);
jr = new window("test", <<journal);

and then you create a structure within the journal by either using the tool bar within the journal, or selecting and dragging outline boxes into the journal

You can access the script for the outline box as

theScript = jr("height")<<get script;

V List Box(
	V List Box( V List Box() ),
	OutlineBox,
	Outline Box(
		V List Box(
			V List Box(
				Picture Box(
					Border Box(
						ScaleBox(
							ScaleBox(
								ScaleBox(
									ScaleBox(
										Border Box(
											H List Box(
												Border Box( AxisBox ),
												V List Box(
													Picture Box(
														Border Box( FrameBox )
													)
												),
												Picture Box( ScaleBox( FrameBox ) )
											)
										)
									)
								)
							)
						)
					)
				),
				V List Box()
			),
			V List Box(
				Outline Box(
					Table Box(
						String Col Box( "100.0%",
							"99.5%",
							"97.5%",
							"90.0%",
							"75.0%",
							"50.0%",
							"25.0%",
							"10.0%",
							"2.5%",
							"0.5%",
							"0.0%"
						),
						String Col Box( "maximum",
							"",
							"",
							"",
							"quartile",
							"median",
							"quartile",
							"",
							"",
							"",
							"minimum"
						),
						Number Col Box( Set Format( "Best", 12 ),
							Array(
								70, 70, 69.975, 68, 65, 63, 60.25, 56.2, 51.025, 51,
								51
							)
						)
					)
				),
				V List Box(
					Outline Box(
						V List Box(
							Table Box(
								String Col Box( "Mean",
									"Std Dev",
									"Std Err Mean",
									"Upper 95% Mean",
									"Lower 95% Mean",
									"N",
									"N Missing"
								),
								Number Col Box( Set Format( "Best", 9 ),
									Array(
										62.55, 4.24233849397192, 0.670772612317988,
										63.9067656723449, 61.1932343276551, 40, 0
									)
								)
							)
						)
					)
				)
			)
		)
	)
)

Observing where you appear to be going with your use of JSL, I suggest that you take the time to read the Scripting Guide available under the Help Pull Down Menu. All of these concepts are covered in the guide. It will make your life easier and your learning of JSL faster.
