Ok. But it just seemed like the scripting language in PageMaker was a whole lot easier. I'm looking over the Scripting Guide and I can't ake heads or tails of it. It's very confusing to go back and forth with AppleScript and VB examples. Maybe it's just me. I've written several scripts (some faily complicated) with Pagemaker, and now I have to learn a whole other language to re-write it. I don't mean to insult it.. I'm sure it'd 10x more powerful than PMScript.. but I'm just frustrated that I've lost all that work I put into the script. :( Even reading through the guide I can't figure out how to convert the simple 10-Up script I posted at the beginning of this thread. :(
