I've got a simple script that looks if a document in a book is open. It worked in ID2, but in ID3 asking for the property 'status' of bookContents not only does not work, but it crashes ID3. I've taken only the necessary lines to reproduce the crash: var bc = app.books[0].bookContents[0]; // check I've got the right thing alert(bc.fullName); // now get the status alert(bc.status); The last statement crashes ID3 (Adobe InDesign is shutting down. A serious error was detected ...). It is language independent, because I get the same result if I do this from Delphi. Am I doing something wrong? Or is it a bug? There is of course a workaround (looking if the document is open by iterating through the open documents). Teus de Jong
