The below script is from one of the scripting index entries for the "Get Estimates" message. The object returned is a list. Are the individual elements of the list easily parsed? Type(estimate[n]), "Name". estimate[2], for example, appears to contain a consistent data structure. How does one return, for example, the matrix denoted "Time End"?
I know that all of the information output by "<< Get Estimates" is ultimately accessible via "<< Get Report" and deciphering the display box hierarchy. However, the concise and easily interpreted structure of "Get Estimates" looks like it could be easier to use and result in simpler code.

estimate = obj << Get Estimates;
