  I tried simply using Object Collection exclusively instead of a group containing both a character string element as well as an object collection element. Seems to be working well but I would appreciate knowing if the above question is possible and if so, what needs to change in order for the tip to apply to a repeating group element.

  Hi Mike,
  
  For a repeating group to be captured using Object collection you might want to draw regions for each instance exclusively (would be easier if you have separators or some statics).
  This can be done using the following code (please remember this is only an example given for 6 instances of 100dt x 100dt rects):
  

  
  if (repgrp.InstancesCount==0) then
      {
      RSA(rect(pagerect.Left,pagerect.Top,pagerect.Left+100dt,pagerect.Top+100dt));
      }
  else if (repgrp.InstancesCount>0 and repgrp.InstancesCount<6)>6)>
      {
      let Static= repgrp.Lastfound.rgnTest.Rect;
      leftof(Static.Right);
      above(Static.Bottom+Static.Height);
      rightof(Static.Left);
      below(Static.Bottom);
      }
  else dontfind;

  in your repeating region advanced pre-search relations and then
  

  
  RSA(rgnTest.Rects);
  

  
  in your Object collection element advanced pre-search relations as well.
  
  Hope that helps,
  Vladislav

  Excellent, that will give me something to play around with. Thank you Vladislav.
