Once again I bang my head against the inscrutable.

I have a table, three columns by n rows. I wish to add a column between the first two columns. It is more convenient to think of this as "Before the second" than "after the first", so:

myTable=app.documents[0].textFrames.item('Target').tables[0];
myTable.columns.add(LocationOptions.before,myTable.columns.item[1]);

gives bad argument for the second line.

So how does one indicate a column in that second argument?
