I have 134 text boxes which I need to re-position on their respective pages and set the text frame vertical alignment to top (currently it is centred).

The repositioning part works OK:

Tell application �Adobe InDesign CS2�
set geometric bounds of selection of document 1 to [w,x,y,z]
end tell

but I cannot get the command �apply object style� to work. I have created an object style simply in order to set the text alignment to top as I could not find anything in INDD�s AS dictionary referring to it.

Have tried every variation I can think of for example �apply object style �Address Frame� to... � . AppleScript objects to the �to� in this instance and gives other reasons for rejecting my other vain attempts to get this working.

Can anyone help with this?

Thx
