Hi Arul,

Here is example for you. You can change the position and size of text box as per your requirement.

if (app.selection[0].constructor.name != "InsertionPoint")

{

exit();

}

var mypage = app.selection[0].parentTextFrames[0].parent;

app.select(app.selection[0].parentStory.insertionPoints.itemByRange (app.selection[0].index, app.selection[0].parentStory.characters[-1].index))

app.cut();

var tf = mypage.textFrames.add ({geometricBounds: [0,0,100,100]})

app.select(tf.insertionPoints[0])

app.paste();
