Well, thanks! But it's still not totaly what I want. I think I have difficulty to grasp the GeometricBounds elements... what they are really...
Bounds(0) and Bounds (2) go toghether
and Bounds (1) and (3) along. Right?
My Code is:
Set myPage = myDoc.Pages.Item(k)
MyPageBounds=MyPage.Bounds
'Place the asset in the Document
CDN.Place myPage
'Select the asset
Set DocCDN = myID.Selection.Item(1)
'Get the Margins of the pages
MarginB=myPage.MarginPreferences.MarginBottom
MarginL=myPage.MarginPreferences.MarginLeft
MarginR=myPage.MarginPreferences.MarginRight
'Get the bounds of my TextFrame
myBounds = DocCDN.GeometricBounds
myBounds(1) = myPageBounds(1) + MarginL
myBounds(3) = myPageBounds(3)- MarginR
DocCDN.GeometricBounds = myBounds
With this, I get the correct width, but it's place at point 0,0, top left of the page. So, I have to know the place it now aligned with the left margin, and aligned with the bottom margin.
