Question

Find to end of document or story

Is there a way to limit the find text so that it only goes to the end of the document or story?

When the cursor is planted in text the find dialog has a "To End of Story" option but I don't see any thing equivalent in the scripting. Of course, finding this stuff hasn't been by InDesign scripting forte.

Thanks,
Ken

Hi Ken,

If you have a cursor in text, you can use item by range to get a single text object from that point to the end of the story. Then tell that object to do the find/change operation. How, exactly, you do that depends on the scripting language you're using.

Thanks,

Ole
