From inside InDeisgn you can fit a text box to the frame content, but I
can't seem to do it inside of VB. I thought I might be able to pass the ID
of the textframe I'm working with to another Sub that looks through all
PageItems and then does a Fit when it finds the correct ID, but I kept
getting errors. The only other method I've come up with is to shrink the
textframe down really small and then keep increasing it by a couple of
points till Overflows is falls, but this doesn't seem too efficient. Can I
just Fit a TextFrame somehow?

thanks
