My scripting ability is minimal, and I'm in awe of the contributions made here. I've used a script that unlinks threaded text frames, retaining the content of each individual frame, and wonder whether there is a script that can split a multi-column text frame into individual, unlinked columns, retaining the existing column widths and the content of each column?

I use both CS and CS2, depending on clients.

I'm sure this is something that will either be very simple or very complex... Can anyone help?

Thanks

Phil
