Hi, 

Can anyone send to me, off list is preferred, an example REALbasic snippet that uses AppleEvents to communicate with InDesign. Preferably this snippet will do something other than just opening an InDesign file, it may, perhaps, get the geometric bounds of a selected text frame. 

I have been using REALbasic for some time now, but AppleEvents are proving something of a problem for me to digest. 

Many thanks for any help
