Hi everyone, I need to do some work from home and need to take all of my lovely custom GREP queries with me. When you save a query for later use in the Find/Change palette, where are the queries saved to? I can't find anything in the Application Support folder on my mac.

If anyone can fire over a quick response, it'd be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

Ahhh!

Don't worry, I've figured it out. For anyone else with the same problem they live:

username/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign/Version 6.0/en_GB/Find-Change Queries/…

username/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign/Version 6.0/en_GB/Find-Change Queries/…

on Mac

on PC they are (Vista 64bit):

C:\Users\[user_name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\InDesign\Version [version]\[UI_language]\Find-Change Queries

[version] could be 5.0 or 6.0

[UI_language] could be en_GB, en_US, es_ES, hu_HU, ja_JP, pl_PL, etc. why in IE version sold in Europe there is jp_JP ?

[edit] I remember why I've tried to check different values in registry to change UI interface and this is "side effect" [/edit]

in 5.0 version there is no [UI_language] subfolder
