There's no problem getting a reference to a locked frame, as shown in the following example:



Dim myInDesign As InDesign.Application 
Set myInDesign = CreateObject("InDesign.Application.2.0") 
Rem Create an example document 
Set myDocument = myInDesign.Documents.Add 
Set myTextFrame = myDocument.Pages.Item(1).TextFrames.Add 
myTextFrame.Locked = True 
Rem Get a reference to the text frame 
For myCounter = 1 To myDocument.Pages.Item(1).TextFrames.Count 
    If myDocument.Pages.Item(1).TextFrames.Item(myCounter).Locked = True Then 
        MsgBox "Found a locked text frame!" 
    End If 
Next 




So something else must be preventing you from getting the reference.

Is it possible that the locked frame is inside a group or pasted inside another text frame?

Thanks,

Ole
