Shane,
 
 Thank you for this explanation !
 
 I think that it's more complicated to address an item and copy/paste/move it, rather than to create it !
 
 
 This is your approach:
  --
 tell application "InDesign 2.0.1"
 �tell document 1
 ��duplicate text frame "Caption" of master spread 1
 ��move result to page 2
 ��set geometric bounds of text frame "Caption" of page 2 to geometric bounds of text frame "Caption" of master spread 1
 �end tell
 end tell
 --
 
 
 This is mine:
  --
 tell application "InDesign 2.0.1"
 �tell document 1
 ��make text frame at page 2 with properties {geometric bounds:{"0 mm", "0 mm", "10 mm", "10mm"}, label:"Caption"}
 �end tell
 end tell
 --
 


 What do you think about that ? It is perhaps subtle... But, I know, each person works with these practices ! 
 
 
 Olivier.
