Hi Dave,
Thank you for the reference. I am trying to work with this code.
In my example above, would theObj be:
t.Item(i)
I translated the javascript to vb and that doesn't seem to be working.
When I pass it t.item(i) I get an error:
"Object doesn't support this property or method".
I must be passing the function the wrong object.
Function findPage(theObj)
If (theObj.hasOwnProperty("baseline")) Then
theObj = theObj.ParentTextFrames(0)
End If
While theObj <> Null And theObj <> Page
Set t = theObj.constructor
Select Case t
Case Null
Case Character: theObj = theObj.ParentTextFrames(0)
Case Cell: theObj = theObj.InsertionPoints(0).ParentTextFrames(0)
Case Application
End Select
findPage = theObj.Parent
Wend
End Function
Any ideas?
thanks,
Ric
