Ole,

I couldn't see how to easily eliminate the leading "a", "the" and whatever within the InDesign document without either calculating it every time for every paragraph every time you looked at it. That's why I started by pulling a copy of the text of each paragraph into AppleScript where it doesn't matter what you do to it because you're not going to put the text back.
