OK. Not an expert with Quark Xpress although I have done some work with
it. I'd try something like:
set picBoxRef to make picture box at beginning with properties
{bounds:{"1", "1", "3", "3"}}
...
tell picture box picBoxRef
...
You'll need to check the value that picBoxRef is set to and that it's
acceptable as a reference in the tell statement. Also, you may need to
insert a "reference to..." in there - but hopefully this points you in
the right direction.
