Liz,

If you want to change the color of the "entire" text frame (not just the paragraph x of the text frame):

tell application "InDesign 2.0.2"
 set myDoc to active document
 tell myDoc
  tell page 1
   set aFrame to make text frame
   tell aFrame
    set the geometric bounds to {"10.0 mm", "10.0 mm", "60.0 mm", "60.0 mm"}
    set contents to "blablabla"
    set properties of text of it to {fill color:swatch "Red" of myDoc}
   end tell
  end tell
 end tell
end tell

Olivier.
