Hi Dave,

OK, so I tried all of these variations and got various errors:

t.Item(1).InsertionPoints(0).ParentTextFrames(0)
t.Item(1).ParentTextFrames(0)
t.InsertionPoints(0).ParentTextFrames(0).item(1)
t.ParentTextFrames(0).item(1)

I would think that one of the first two would work since they are both  
text and the object browser shows ParentTextFrame as a property of text.

What am I doing wrong.

Thanks,
Ric

Ah, hasOwnProperty is a JavaScript only method.

Since you know that you're passing text, you could just skip that --
eliminate the test and go straight to the parent text frame.
