I've solved the problem, but my solution seems very Heath Robinson. I ended up writing: tell application "InDesign 2.0.2" set myLinks to every link of document 1 set linkName to full name of document 1 & " Figures:CA-Fig3-2.tif" set it1 to page item 1 of page item 1 of item 1 of selection repeat with theLink in myLinks set it2 to parent of theLink if it1 = it2 then tell link theLink to relink to file linkName update theLink exit repeat end if end repeat end tell This works -- I've been banging my head for two hours to get this far. My problem has been that any attempt to directly get the link of page item 1 of page item 1 of item 1 of selection gave me an error. What am I missing? Dave
