Hi,

I need to do some search and replace in a table. Here's what I do:

Set myTable = MyIndesign.Selection.Item(1)

Set myReplace0 = myTable.Search("^s", False, False, "")
Set myReplace1 = myTable.Search(" ", False, False, "")
Set myReplace2 = myTable.Search(":", False, False, ".")

The thing is it only seems to work for the first cell of the table. This happens when I select the table. When I select only the textframe Indesign crashes. Any ideas how to get this to work?

Thanks
Alex
