Hi Jacintha,

The line in your code (tell mydocument to make document) the “tell” should be “set”. See corrected code below.

tell application "Adobe indesign cs2"
   set mydocument to make document
       tell mydocument
           import xml from "Users:documents:sample.xml"
       end tell
end tell
