Ole, Ironic that the client has already obsoleted that piece of code! Still, the new code will have the same problem, only now I have to deal with the anchor points of path 1 of the text frame!! I understand your not liking copy and paste, but the selection is very useful. I use it as a matter of course for communicating among my scripts. Granted, it slows things down a tad -- each script has to query the document to get such things as a reference to the story and the like, but it sure makes incremental development easy. I don't have to worry about fancy schemes for passing data around, I just put the insertion point in the paragraph that the script has to work on. Now, some of my scripts process multiple paragraphs, but they all have to know where to start. Dave
