Probably because you're using CS3 or CS4. In these versions of InDesign, the Story.textFrames collection is the collection of text frames that are inline or anchored to the story. What you are interested in is the textContainers property (which is an array, by the way, so be careful about addressing the last member; you have to use: myStory.textContainers[myStory.textContainers.length - 1]). Actually, you can use: myStory.textContainers[0].endTextFrame; which is a clearly anachronistic name for what should now be called endTextContainer. This is less typing, but takes twice as long because it involves two calls to the object model. Dave
