Ok, now I get it! PageItems(x).Item does not return a PageItem, but a specific type of object depending on what the TypeName of the PageItem is, ie, if TypeName(PageItems(x).Item) = "TextFrame" then I can set a TextFrame typed variable to PageItems(x).Item. 

F.Y.I., i'm actually trying to go the other way, take a XML document and apply it to an Indesign document, intelligently replacing content as necessary...
