Hi,


maybe this is a way that should ALWAYS work?:
(margins seems to be a good idea - but i need to set a mag whis has
inner=outer margin)

just place an item (any invisible like empty text frame)
 on masterspreads pages item 1 (always left one right?)
with label "verso"

and then you can test for existance of the pages MasterSpreadItem with
that label "verso"

...and now I am stuck...

because i cant access MasterPageItems

when I try

    For i = 1 To objPage.MasterPageItems.AllPageItems.Count
        If objPage.MasterPageItems.AllPageItems.Item(i).Label ="verso" Then
            boolIsMarked = True
            Exit For
        End If
    Next

it does not work (MasterPageItems is not found..)

if I view the page- Objekt in VB debugger there are no MasterPageItems

BUT: when i drag the masterpage onto the page in GUI (while Debugger
is running)
 MasterPageItems appear in debugger window...

What am I doing wrong? Does anybody know in which cases
MasterPageItems are not available?

TIA

Johannes
