Reply To: Grep positive look behind at preceding paragraph

Thank you very much!

The Find/Change option works fine. But…

I am trying to do set styles automatically in articles of a magazine. (such as heading, sub-heading and writer), Because the content of the copy is different every time, I have to look for specific structure. A heading is always the first paragraph of these stories. A sub-heading can be found in these articles by searching for a paragraph containing 1 – 4 words. The writer is at the end of the story but sometimes theres no mention of the writer. So you know if there's a writer when you find the <auteursvermelding> tag.

A find/change option will be just as effective as setting a style by hand to the paragraph because I have to check the completed layout anyway.

Maybe I am lazy but I still think this “fancy automated search-and-replace” could be very powerful if it could search beyond the paragraph.
