Where does myFindResult come from...

Here is part of the code:

myInDesign.Open (vfilename)
Set myDocument = myInDesign.ActiveDocument

myDocument.Search "~" & Trim(RSitem!pcode), False, False, FormatNumber(Trim(CStr(RSitem!msrp)), 2, 0, 0, 0)

set myResult = myDocument.Search ("~" & Trim(RSitem!pcode), False, False, FormatNumber(Trim(CStr(RSitem!msrp)), 2, 0, 0, 0))

myFindResult = myResult.Item(1)

myPageName = myFindResult.Texts.Item(1).Characters.Item(1).ParentTextFrame.Parent.Name

myFindResult.Texts.Item(1).Characters.Item(1).ParentTextFrame.Parent.Name

where:
myFindResult.Texts.Item(1) - found text
myFindResult.Texts.Item(1).Characters.Item(1) - first character
myFindResult.Texts.Item(1).Characters.Item(1).ParentTextFrame - TextFrame
myFindResult.Texts.Item(1).Characters.Item(1).ParentTextFrame.Parent - Page (if TextFrame isn't in Group or isn't as AnchoredObject or InLine Graphic, etc.)
