Thanks Thomas,

That seems to work fine. And it put the graphicline exactly where it should be.

I notice that the placement of the line is related to the weight of the stroke on the text frame. I was using the stroke centered on the path and a stroke weight of 1 point. That translated to the graphicline being positioned .333 pt from the mathematically correct position. By changing the stroke on the text frame to stroke on the outside of the path, it returned to the proper position.

I have not had to consider the text inset since I control that in the paragraph styles of the text.

Thank you for your help.

Ken
