I am confused why at times different code is needed for a search, also the "in" word is missing from some and still works!
example:-

set myResult to search in myStory for ". "
where mystory is parent story of a previously found character

and

set myselection to selection
	set myheadings to search myselection for return & return

I just want to know in laymans terms why the difference?

Cheers

Roy
