Okay, I got the loop to work, had to be contained inside other loops, no need to post it, im sure you guys don't need to see it, but now I'm having this problem. When I create the text boxes in the page setup code I give them this label: 

"Name-" & myPage & "-" & myColumnCounter + 1 & "-" & myRowCounter + 1 
and then in the Scripting code i reference it like this 

iFrame = "Name-" & myPage & "-" & myColumnCounter + 1 & "-" & myRowCounter + 1 
Set myiTextFrame = myPage.TextFrames.Item(iFrame) 
myiTextFrame.InsertionPoints.Item(-1).TextContents = sBuf1 & vbCr 

and it returns the label of the box, it just can't seem to do anything with it. Oh and sBuf is defined right before. 

Any ideas?
