Hi Jeff,

re: "Thanks, but that solution isn't documented and doesn't seem to work."

You might take a look at the "Script Versioning" section in the Scripting Guide (though it mistakenly says that the folder name for CS2 scripts should be "Version 2.0 Scripts"--Larry's folder name is the correct one). The folder should be in the Scripts Panel folder inside the Scripts folder inside your InDesign folder.

When you say "doesn't seem to work," and "There are changes to the scripting language that prevent these scripts from running," what do you mean? There are a few changes in the scripting object model that can't be covered by the technique described above--it may be that you're running into some of these. Beyond that, without seeing the content of the scripts or error messages, we can't even guess.

There is no conversion guide, cross-reference list, or utility. There are the topics at the top of the forum that discuss changes from one version to another. Tell us what you're trying to do, and we'll help you get your scripts updated.

Thanks,

Ole
