Marty,
This snippet should work at the first try:
---
tell document 1 of application "QuarkXPress 4.11"
activate
set tool mode to drag mode
tell current page
set selected of every generic box to true
end tell
end tell
---
The command 'set tool mode to drag mode' makes sure that the item tool
is selected. Else, only the back-most box will be selected.

p.s. Thanks Hans
You're welcome.
