I've got an encyclopedia that has each topic prefaced with the topic name in a specific style. I'd like to make a script that finds the first occurrence of this style on each page and then create a textbox at the top of the page to copy that first topic name to. Optionally, I might want to do the last topic on the page too. I figure I need to use the FindText method, but I can't seem to figure out exactly how to work it. Can anyone help me with this?
