Hello Peter,

First of all thank you for helping :o)

      Strange -- it should work. Does your document have a variable called "Last
      Page Number"? (You call it an application variable', but these don't exist
      in that sense. The variables you see in the "Text Variables" dialog are
      examples created there by Adobe. I deleted them because I have no use
      for all those variables in every new document that I create. Which is
      also the reason why I can't really check your problem.)




If I understand you correctly, a variable that i can place in a text, needs to be visible under text variables -> define.
So first i define a variable, then i make an instance of it at the location needed right?

I thought that Last Page Number was a variable that was always present and therefore did not need to be added before using it.
Are these "demo" variables from Adobe included in the document in any way, or why have you deleted them?

(Btw my try statement above is inverted, I do it the other way around now)

Once again, thank you for your time, and scripts at
