Reply To: Make everything bold before (and included) a colon using GREP?

Nancy, it is easy to ask something, and type the answer in the find/change field. But your goal should be to understand what you did.

In your first case, you search for the beginning of a paragraph, followed by something, till you reach the position on the first In.
So maybe: ^.+?(?=In) will work.

But this will help you only with your first task.

If you have a large list of items, this is maybe possible or maybe not. This depends on your text.

However: In the last years, it seems normal, that someone ask for a script, and someone write it for you. Today it is clear, that there are to many free scrips available … so you will not get a complete solution (from me)
