I'm not having any luck getting the right (or maybe bizarre is a better word) gyration in place to set the color of every "y" in a text frame to say  Cyan. In QXP we'd do it like this: 
set the color of (every character where the text of it is "y") to "Red", within the context of tell text box blah. I haven't seen too many things text related in ID2 that are that straight-forward....... How do we do it?
