I am writing a script to chain a series of find/changes. I want the routine to run only to the current story, and don't know the syntax. Here's a piece of the script applied to the entire document:

	set find what of find grep preferences to "~b~b+"
	set change to of change grep preferences to "
"
	tell document 1
		set myFoundItems1 to change grep
	end tell

How can I get this to run on just the current story?

Any help will be appreciated!

Thanks.
