How to target an NPC when using console commands

the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim

I am trying to use the OpenActorContainer 1 console command. Most of the threads I've seen say to "click" or "highlight" the NPC whose inventory you wish to access. However, when I click on them, the only thing my character does is draw his weapon.

How do I select an NPC?

You have to click on them while the console is open. Then type the command and press Enter.
