Sorry guys I never replied back because the was project was cancelled but it is back again.

  1. Data merge it is not good for this project because not all addresses have the same amount of lines to fit in an specific size text frame. I can have 12 address in column & the other I can have 15.
  2. Nested Styles was the other possibility but there is a single hard return in every line of the text.
  3. Grep looks good but difficult for me. I don't know how to search w Grep. Jongware's suggestion is interesting. The text goes:

Names (are Times Bold, blue color, 9 pts) paragraph style applied

Adresses (Times plain, black color, 8 pts) paragraph style applied

Using Find & Replace I searched for all the instances of the address paragraph style but I don't to how change that instead a hard return change to soft return. After an address the next paragraph style is the names that way I can use nested styles & avoid widows & orphans
