neoprimitive--

I'm not sure that using scripting to work through your text and format various parts of it is the best approach. If I were doing it, I'd have a script add tagged text markup to the original text file, and then import that. It would be a great deal faster than changing the formatting in the document.

It does depend, somewhat, on the format of the file or files you're given. Does this sound like an avenue worth exploring?

Thanks,

Ole
