[Pythonmac-SIG] get reference

[Zhi Peng]

Has, thanks a lot for your help. 

I use Tiger Mac 10.4.  Could I ask you, is it possible
for me to get new version or binary version? As I run
the MacPython script, it now can make new document and
make new textframe which place a small rectangle on
the left coner of the document created. It might be
better if using 
myTextFrame1= id.make(new=k.text_frame,
at=myDoc.pages[1],
with_data=["6p0","6p0","38p0","38p0"],
with_properties=geometric_bounds)

But I am not sure if it is in right form for both
with_data and with_properties. Anyone knew? 

The error message is as following.

myTextFrame.geometric_bounds.set(["6p0","6p0","18p0","18p0"])
