The following restrictions apply when using this intrinsic:
1. Open mode--The dictionary must be opened in Exclusive Update mode.
2. Security--The current scope must be either the Dictionary
Administrator scope or the deleted scope's owner scope.
3. If the NewOwnerScope parameter is blank, all items previously
owned by the deleted scope will now be owned by the current scope,
and the Password parameter will be ignored.
4. The scope rights of the new owner scope must be at least as great
as the deleted scope.
