I am trying to run the FindChangeByList JavaScript in CS4. My FindChangeList.txt is in the same folder as the script. When I try to run the script, it crashes out here:

	app.doScript(myString, ScriptLanguage.javascript);

telling me that a string is expected (Error 25).

In the debugger, I can see the string value, and it seems correct.

Here is the FindChangeList.txt entry (currently, it's the only line in the file for debugging simplification:

text	{find what:"~TRA"}	{applied character style:"TRA/TMS/CCC", change to:"<27A4>"}	{include footnotes:true, include master pages:true, include hidden layers:true, whole word:false}

I really hope someone can figure out what the problem is. I am currently having to do hundreds of find/replaces by hand.

Thanks in advance.
