Shane,

you are right, your code is faster.

Both will work in normal text (outside footnotes), but both will not work if the characters are part of footnote text.





 
set applied character style of text from character x to character y of 
myStory to myCharStyle 




 
set applied character style of characters x thru y of myStory to myCharStyle  




So it is not only JavaScript which has problems taking access to text within footnotes, but AppleScript too. But AppleScript doesn't have problems with the selection-object within footnotes.

Thanks
Martin
