Hey All, 
I have a pageItem with a TypeName of "Image". I want to replace the image with another file, then scale the image to fit the frame using my own scaling method. 

However, it would appear that after calling link.Update, every call to the image fails with: 

Automation error 
The object invoked has disconnected from its clients. 

My code is as follows: 

Set idImage = idDocument.AllPageItems(curPageItem) 
Set idLink = idImage.Link 
idLink.Relink NewTagContent 
idLink.Update 
msgbox (idImage.ID) <

Is there any way that I can change the link of an image then adjust it's properties?
