I'm considering making a switch to InDesign from Quark. I have several scripts which call on FileMaker Pro fields to set the text of certain named text boxes. I only have the tryout version of InDesign and wonder if there is an easy way to rename text frames so Applescript will know which frames FileMaker is referring to.

Please excuse any errors in the post of this question as it's the first time I've ever posted to a discussion group.
