Hi

Bit off more than I can chew when purchasing Visual Basic .NET 2002 to run some scripts for InDesign. Completely and utterly ignorant with the program, but I need to create a script that will search for any rectangle with .5 pt outline and change it to a 1 pt outline in an 80-page catalogue. I also want to apply a drop shadow to a paragraph style... can anyone give a hand with the syntax for this script? Err... scratch that... can anyone GIVE me the syntax for this script? I'll learn it eventually, I promise!

Thanks,

Harv
