Does anyone know of a good Quark scripting reference? Documentation provided by Quark, is limited. Thanks again! :)

Kurt,
Replace your line - duplicate generic bla bla bla with:

set tool mode of document 1 to drag mode
select generic boxes of page 1 of document 1
copy
show document 2
paste

Don't skip the tool mode. References? We don't need no stinking references!
Actually I got my start with their example script "Document Construction" which is in the Quark Folder.
Collect every script you can find for dealing with Quark and then try to modify them to suite your needs and educate yourself. I did read an AS book, but I've found over the years that working with existing scripts was much more beneficial. Reading the AS book kinda just made my eyes gloss over. Your mileage may vary. Let me know if you want examples, I have tons. It would be nice to know they'd go to a good home.
