Marilyn, Cliff-- I'll take a look at the script. It's not one of mine, but I should be able to figure out what's wrong with it. My guess is that it was saved as a compiled script or application from OS 9--OS X can have problems with this sort of script, as the script itself lives in the file's resource fork and OS X doesn't like resource forks. Anyway, if you have InDesign CS, you'll find an example script called "TextCleanup" (in either applescript ".as" or JavaScript ".js" form). It runs a series of find/change routines based on the contents of a text file "FindChangeList.txt". I've set it up to demonstrate a number of typical "cleanup" operations--find/change double spaces, double returns, etc. You can add your own find/change operations to the file--see the comments at the beginning of the script for more information. Thanks, Ole
