Oh, thank you very much. I was in a hurry and did not notice where I wrote. Thank you for moving the problem to its own section. Yes, I use InDesign.

This sounds like InDesign? If it is, we can move your post from Using the Community to InDesign for you.

I use a word processor (MS Word) to check spelling, grammar & punctuation before I export documents to other apps. That gets rid of 99% of problems.

Oh, thank you, but with my modest experience in Word, I think that this requires me to follow the correction process line by line. That's why I prefer InDesign because it usually saves time, especially through the Grep commands.

GREP will do this. I am not in my office now, but you can put each part into parenthesis to make them a group in the Search bar, then Paste only the groups you want.
Sorry, I can't remember the exact syntax, but if, for example, the text is "1. Heading" , you might search for (any number repeated)(.)(text) and replace with group 1, followed by Return, followed by group 3. It's faster than Word, and you can save your search.
Someone with give you the exact GREP code, or I can look at InDesign tomorrow and give you a better answer.

Thank you very much Jane! yes I will wait for more details from you. I am in no hurry; I was just asking to get information in case I face the same problem again.<3
