Discussion

The event ID (a four-character code) for the receiver, or 0 if an error occurs.

The receiver must be an Apple event. An Apple event is identified by its event class and event ID, a pair of four-character codes stored as 32-bit integers. For example, the open Apple event from the Standard suite has the four-character code 'odoc' (defined as the constant kAEOpen in AE.framework, a subframework of ApplicationServices.framework).
