Hi Jeremy:
It’s me again. I’m trying to use this GREP string “(?<=,).*?(?=;)” this year on same large project—2023 edition.

For some reason it’s not finding anything when I search.

I’m using InDesign 2023 (18.0); still trying to apply a character style of ITALICS to anything that falls between a comma and a semi-colon. I’m using InDesign’s Find/Change, GREP tab and the formatting box at the bottom of the dialog.

Any ideas why this isn’t working this year. It’s worked wonderfully for the past two years. Maybe I’m forgetting how to use it?? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. so much.
Colleen
