when I say next object from the select menu, the second textframe is selected.
I select the first character of the textframe with the code I have specified,
app.selection[0].textSelection[0].characters[0].select();
but I cannot write without doing a mouse doubleclick
i want to type selected textframe without mouse doubleclick , thank you for all advices

do you want to type by hand after selecting the first character?

it might not be possible, perhaps you can bring up a prompt window, type what you need then use the text to update your selection.

Could you not write the script so the user imputs the text in a dialog then populates the selected text frame?
