Ole,

Thanks for the revision.

The script didn't work for me until I changed this line:



repeat with myStory in stories



to these two lines:



set mySelection to selection 
repeat with myStory in mySelection



...and I have to select all the text with the Type Tool or select the frame with the Selection Tool (insertion point is not enough).
But hey, now it works!

I found these - object reference of this and that - the most brain smashing thing when scripting InDesign AppleScripts,
but I hope that in one day I will get it...
