UseAction - Documentation by Sarf

Perform the specified action.

UseAction(slot [,checkCursor] [,onSelf])

Parameters

Arguments

(slot [,checkCursor] [,onSelf])
slot
Numeric - The action slot to use.
checkCursor
Flag (optional) - Can be 0, 1, or nil. Appears to indicate whether the action button was clicked (1) or used via hotkey (0); probably involved in placing skills/items in the action bar after they've been picked up.
onSelf
Flag (optional) - Can be 0, 1, or nil. If present and 1, then the action is performed on the player, not the target.

Details

Each button on your action bar has an ID. The first button id is 1, and so on. There are 6 action bars in all, thus the highest action bar is 72. With the addition of ver 1300, Page 3 acts as the Right Action bar, page 4 acts as the second Right action bar, page 5 acts as the Bottom Right bar, and page 6 acts as the Bottom Left bar.
Update 31-Dec-2005
Action bar SlotID's have been seen as high as 120 and may go even higher. Druids are lucky enough to get extra action bars for some of their forms (Bear Form, Cat Form, but apparently not Aquatic Form or Travel Form). The following code enumerates the (/macro) name and texture for all assigned action bar slots:
function reportActionButtons()
 local lActionSlot = 0
 for lActionSlot = 1, 128 do
  local lActionText = GetActionText(lActionSlot)
  if not(lActionText) then lActionText = "" end
  local lActionTexture = GetActionTexture(lActionSlot)
  if (lActionText) or (lActionTexture) then
   local lMessage = lActionSlot..". "..lActionText
   lMessage = lMessage.." ["..lActionTexture.."]"
   DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(lMessage)
  end
 end
end
