Hello

As a very (french) beginner in Applescript, I'm trying to convert quickly some XPress files into Indesign CS2. For that, I'd like to replace the XPress paragraph and character styles by those I've created in Indesign (for example : "Oblique" to character style "italique"). I've tried to write a script, but it fails at each time. It was that :

tell application "Adobe InDesign CS2"
	set change preferences to nothing
	set find preferences to nothing
	search with find attributes {font style:"Oblique"}
	set theStyle to "italique"
	search with find attributes {font style:"superscript"}
	set theStyle to "exposant"
	search with find attributes {font style:"bold"}
	set theStyle to "bold"
end tell

And yes, I'm a very beginner, as you can see. Can anyone help me with that script? What are the mystakes?
