Here is my situation, Mac OS 9.2, Quark 4.11

I have a droplet which when two quark doc's are dropped onto it, it will
open the documents select every text box from doc. 1 and duplicate it to doc
2. The problem I am having is making sure the correct document is opened as
doc. 1.

One other thing to note. If you're only duplicating text boxes from a single page in document 1 to the first page of document 2, then you could simply say...

tell app "Quark"
duplicate every text box of document "AEX002A" to beginning of document "AEX002"
end

This eliminates the need to select the items before duplicating them. If duplicating from a multi-page document to a multi-page document, the same rules apply. However, it gets a little more complicated and you'll need to loop through copying items from one page at a time.

Thanks,

- Ben
