Hi Matt,

re: "I have even just copied the snippet from the Official Scripting Guide to see if I was causing the error with my first line but I get the same error here for the second line.
var myDocument = app.open(File("/c/myTestDocument.indd"), false);
var myLayoutWindow = myDocument.windows.add();"

The first question--do you have a file named "myTestDocument.indd" on a drive named "c"?

The second parameter controls whether the document opens with a visible window or not. If you omit it or change it to true, you don't need the line that creates a new window.

Thanks,

Ole
