bluelight--

A quick note--use the VB Watch window or Locals window to view InDesign objects and their values as you debug your script. When you see "<Automation Error>" for a value, you can assume that the corresponding property does not get filled in unless some other property is set to some specific value.

I will sometimes just put a stop on a single line script:



Set myInDesign = CreateObject("InDesign.Application.2.0") 




...and then step (F8) over that one line. I then open the Locals window and start examining the Documents collection of the InDesign application object that's just been created. As you burrow down into the "live" documents, you'll learn lots of interesting things.

re: "the sky is the limit"

My thoughts exactly!<g> The only serious "holes" in the implementation that I can think of are:

* support for text that's bound to a path

* support for direct manipulation of clipping paths and text wrap paths

* support for some import/export filter options

There are other annoyances and minor problems, but, for the most part, we can work around them.

Thanks,

Ole
