Activating More Than One InDesign Document

Question

I need some assistance in AppleScript for InDesign CS2.
I need to copy text from one InDesign CS2 document to another InDesign CS2 document. I already know the AppleScript commands to copy and paste the text.
But what I am getting stuck is the command to activate the second document. After I copy the item from document 1, I need to paste it in document 2. But I don't know the command to activate the other document. I was hoping a simple command like:
"activate lower document" or
"activate other document" or
"activate second document" or
"activate document 'Untitled-2'...
would work, but all of the above give me errors or do not work.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Answer 1

You have a list of documents but there is only the one active document. So just loop thru the others setting them to the active one in turn…
Something like:
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS2"
tell the active document
-- do your copy stuff here…
display dialog (name as text) giving up after 2
end tell
repeat with i from 2 to count of documents
set the active document to document i
tell the active document
--do your paste stuff here…
display dialog (name as text) giving up after 2
end tell
end repeat
end tell
