Thanks for your reply.

I've created a mail merge document with 2 text boxes and renamed one of them. I then merge to create a new document.

I've attached this new doc. You can see the that the text box I renamed to 'MyBox' keeps that same name on every page, but the name of the one I left alone increments for each page.

I guess one way around this would be to refer to the text boxes by their number within the shapes collection using a counter as I loop through. Would be nice to be able to do it by name though.
