Matt--

To further explain: It's because no text object (which is what we're talking to) has the "Make" or "Add" method, but they do have "Place." If we place a text file in a text object, the object inserts the text, not a text frame.

The easiest way to do what you want to do would be to create a table in a story, then tell the first insertion point of one of the cells to place the graphic and then insert text in the other cell.

Thanks,

Ole
