Ana-- I'm not sure why it doesn't work--it should (as it does in the UI). This is probably a bug in both Columns and Rows--Table.Search and Cell.Search work just fine; Row.Search also fails. I'll see what we can find out about this problem. As a workaround, you can search each cell in the column. (Note, however, that Cell.Search will fail if the cell does not contain any text.) By the way--be careful with For Each...Next constructions. InDesign will only iterate through the first 255 items in the collection (this is to prevent crashes in VB's Locals Window and Watches Window). Lots of ID collections have more than 255 elements (fonts, characters, etc.). Thanks, Ole
