Does anyone know whether it is possible to group objects in XPress 4.1?
Alan,
you say "4.1". I hope that you're using "4.11",
else you should update your QuarkXPress.
Try this for grouping the two objects on the page:
---
tell application "QuarkXPress 4.11"
activate
tell document 1
set tool mode to drag mode
tell page 1
set selected of every generic box to true
set objRef to object reference of every generic box whose selected is true
end tell
end tell
set selection to item 1 of objRef
end tell

Thanks, it worked although I don't understand what it is doing or
where it is explained in the reference manual. The next problem is
building it into the script that I am working on.
Regards Alan.
