It's perhaps not a method you'd use that often, but I've implemented it 
in the C++ framework since I needed it at some point.

Here's an example:
---
function processapart(part)
     part:SwitchTo
     -- Do same editing of the part
     part:SwitchBack()
end

local thepart = finale.FCPart(PARTID_SCORE)
-- Process the score:
processapart(thepart)
thepart:SetCurrent()
-- Process the part (or score) that is currently in the focus:
processapart(thepart)

On a related note, I just discovered that the JW Lua hook to the FCPart 
constructor is slightly wrong. In JW Lua, it should always require one 
parameter constant. Although this is a quite harmless bug, it will be 
fixed in 0.07.
