Ole, Thanks !!!! If I understand, I can't use the same solution as QuarkXPress. In my XPress doc, I've about 60 boxes on a master. Each of these boxes is named (i.e.: 'Main box', 'Header box', ...) How can I do this in InDesign? Must I work with your solution: �set myMainFrame to master page item 1 �set myHeaderFrame to master page item 2 Here is a handler to write a new line in the 'Main box': -- on PutANewLine(TheNewLine, ThePageNumber, TheStyleSheet) �tell application "QuarkXPress Passport� 4.11" ��tell text box "Main box" of page ThePageNumber of document 1 ���copy (TheNewLine & return) to after last paragraph of story 1 ���set style sheet of paragraph ParagraphCounter to style spec TheStyleSheet of document 1 ��end tell �end tell end PutANewLine -- on PutANewLine(TheNewLine, ThePageNumber, TheStyleSheet) �tell application "InDesign 2.0" ��tell page ThePageNumber ���set myMainFrame to master page item ??????? ���tell myTextFrame ����set contents of it to "blablabla" ���end tell ��end tell �end tell end PutANewLine TIA Olivier.
