I'm trying to check a paragraph to see if it contains a forced line break. What I've got is:

tell myDocument
  set mySpecial to forced line break
  repeat with myCounter from 1 to 10
    set myPara to paragraph myCounter of myStory
    if myPara contains mySpecial then
      set fill color of text in paragraph myCounter of myStory to myPink
    end if
  end repeat
end tell

That seems to work for everything except forced line break. I tried adding "as unicode text" to lines 2 and 4, but that didn't seem to help.

What am I missing?

Thanks!

Jay
