Thank's David and Stan,
The idea was good, but the problem is still there ?!?
The script is still giving me this message.
"This value would cause one or several items to get out of the
"mounting table" (translated from French).
In fact, when trying on a test page, it works if I only have one page,
but if I use it on a two pages spread it doesn't work anymore.
And of course, there's enough place to create a box of 60 mm large and
paste to anchor it in place of some text.
Regards,
Michel

Your script works, it's just what I wanted.
But my script works well in a test page, and not in my layout, giving
me a message saying that doing so would move objects out of the "plan
de travail", the working area.
It says so, even if I reduce the geometric bounds values ???

There are four settings that can cause objects to unexpectedly fall
"out of
bounds": measurement units (both vertical and horizontal), ruler
origin, and
zero point (of the ruler). For example, you may be specifying your
measurements in points, but the document may be set to inches, which
are 72
times larger.
One shouldn't assume that some particular InDesign document is set up
as
desired. Only when you explicitely define those settings can you rely
on
them to be correct.
Here's code to set all these preferences (and show rulers):
tell application "InDesign CS"
tell document 1
tell view preferences
set horizontal measurement units to points
set vertical measurement units to points
set show rulers to true
set ruler origin to page origin
end tell
set zero point to {0.0, 0.0}
end tell
end tell
