How do I delete all text frames using javascript

[davidn5918184]

I trying to set up code at the beginning of my script that will look and see if there is a text frame in the document (it will have text in it but I'm not sure if its relevant), and if it exists delete it.

Does anyone have an idea if this can be done?

Thanks,

~David

Hi,

Try this code.

var myDoc = app.activeDocument;

var myStories = app.activeDocument.stories.everyItem().getElements();  

        for (i = myStories.length - 1; i >= 0; i--){  

            var myTextFrames = myStories.textContainers;  

            for (j = myTextFrames.length - 1; j >= 0; j--){  

            myTextFrames.remove();  

            }  

        }

app.activeDocument.textFrames.everyItem().remove();

These both worked well, thank you so much!
