      Hello,

      I am making a “quiz book” and am stuck on a formatting problem. Hoping that someone can help me out.

      I am trying to format all of my “feedback” sections with GREP find/change tool. The “Feedback” sections are tricky because they only follow some of the questions, they are of varying length (some one line, some multiple paragraphs), it is not always words, it’s sometimes equations. It looks like this:

      (Auto-Number List)This paragraph is a question.

      a) distractor
      b) distractor
      c) distractor
      d) distractor

      Feedback:
      this is feedback
      more feedback

      = some equation

      Next Question

      The feedback is always followed by a question, which leads me to think that I should be able to select the whole thing using a positive look ahead, but I haven’t been able to do so. The GREP find still stops after 1 paragraph. Is there any way for GREP to find and change sections of multiple paragraphs?
