Do you need to change the character style from one to another (or apply other formatting overrides), or do you need to do more complex processing (like adding parentheses or changing capitalization)? You can do either in a script, but the latter is a little more difficult. If you're just changing the formatting, then you'll want to look the Application object's FindPreferences and ChangePreferences, and the Search command. Let us know the particulars, and I'll try to come up with a code snippet (if Ole doesn't beat me to it). Alan
