<blockquote><tt>myPara1Place = myPara1.parent.texts.itemByRange(0, myPara1.index) </tt></blockquote><br><br>myPara1.index returns the index of the first insertion point of the current paragraph within the story (myPara1.parent is a story), which could be in the thousands. But you&#39;re addressing probably just one text. It&#39;s as if you&#39;re asking for twenty lollies when there&#39;s just one in the jar. <br>
<br>When you use someobject.itemByRange (start, stop), &quot;stop&quot; must be smaller than (or equal to) the length of &quot;someobject&quot;. Since there are (probably) as many characters in a story as there are indexes, in this case that&#39;s what you use for itemByRange&#39;s scope. <br>
