Bastie--

Even though the Layer parameter on the Groups.Add method is shown as optional, it must be accounted for. So all you need to do is:



Set myGroup = myDocument.Groups.Add(, myDocument.Pages.Item(PageNumber).PageItems) 




Next, the display won't always update to show the new group selection handles--deslect, then select again to see them.

You can flip the group across its horizontal center point using the Resize method (just as you can using the Free Transform tool). Here's how to do it:



myGroup.Resize -100, , idCenterAnchor, False, True, False 




Hope this helps!

Thanks,

Ole
