Hi,
I am trying to group a textframe, and two rectangles in an AppleScript.
This is the only syntax that I have got to work
set myGroup to make group with data {group items:topFrame & textFrame & bottomFrame}
but when I run it, it gets an error of "can't make id 405 of document etc... into a list, record or text"
I know how to group a selection but I was wondering if I could do it by grouping the items on the page.

Hope this all makes sense.

Thanks for any help,
Liz
