Fred,

In answer to 1, there doesn't appear to be a way to add a generic anchored object that takes on the anchored object default settings.

Rather, you can add a text frame or a rectangle by:

myIP.rectangles.add();

or

myIP.textFrames.add();

They take on the free-standing item defaults rather than the anchored object defaults.

As for number 2, if you know the paragraph in question, then you can just write:

myIP = myPara.insertionPoints[0].

Dave
