>It also needs to be modified to set properties of objects inside pageframes. Pageframes don't have a baseclass of "container" and don't have a controlcount property or a Controls() array, but pages do, and pageframes have a pagecount property and a Pages() array, which might be used in a similar way in the recursive calls in that method.
