Textframe insertionpoint

Hi

I m trying to get the insertion point of the first textframe in the page.

My code:

var ins=idPage.textFrames.item(0).insertionPoints.item(0);

But this is showing "ins" as invalid object and count of insertion point for this textframe is 0(zero)

Where is it wrong? How can i get the insertion point of the textframe?

Please suggest

Thank You

Maybe your variable idPage is invalid.

let say var ins=app.activeDocument.textFrames.item(0).insertionPoints.item(0);

ih the above coding you mentioned textFrames.item(0), that means it is first text frame..
