John,

You're confusing

Graphic.geometricBounds

in the OMV, which tells you that a graphic object has the geometricBounds property, with how to address said graphic in a specific instance.

Pages do not have a graphics (note plural) property, although they do have an allGraphics property (which gives you a list of all of them on the page). Typically, when you're looking for a specific graphic in the fashion you're doing, you need to get at it via the frame that holds it. Assuming it's a rectangle, you might write:

myPages[j].rectangles[0].graphics[0].geometricBounds;

even though the rectangle can only have one graphic, it is still a collection of one and can't be addressed using the singular form.
