Hi, me again!
I have now got to a stage in my script where I need to (subject to condition) add carriage returns at the end of a line (forcing a right indent effect). I have got as far as defining separate paragraphs that contain more that 1 line, but I need help to add a carriage return at the end of each line (as it has a right indent style sheet attached) and apply a stye sheet with no right indent to the last line.
Here is what I have so far.....
myStory =app.selection[0].parentStory;
app.findPreferences = null;
app.changePreferences = null;
myPounds = myStory.search("�");
myPoundCnt =myPounds.length;
for (i=myPoundCnt-1; i>=0 ; i--)
{
myPound =myPounds[i];
myPara =myPound.paragraphs[0];
myLineCnt =myPara.lines.length;
if (myLineCnt >1)
{
alert ("this has " + myLineCnt + " lines")
for (myLineStep=myLineCnt; myLineStep >=1 ;myLineStep--)
{
myLine=myPara.lines[myLineStep].content;
alert ("Line is " + myLine);
//returns "Line is undefined"
}
}
}
I have put the id file on my FTP site, this would give a better idea of what i am hopelessly trying to explain!

Thanks again
