Hi

To solve the current error, use the Count property of the
collection, like this:

for (int i=0; i < superPosting.Placeholders.Count; i++)

And for copying the contents of the placeholder, have a
look at this entry in Stefan's blog which includes some
sample code:

9546.aspx

In case you change your mind about connected templates,
this solution does the same job without all the code:
