The basic technique for adding content to existing text is to set the content of the appropriate insertion point within the text in question.

With text frames, you have to be careful to make sure that the text in question is really in the frame. There's a lot to be said for processing the frame's parent story and its contents rather than that of the text frame; that way, even if the text becomes overset, the references are still valid.
