    My problem is to find scriptural references in a religious journal and display them in a separate list. Is there a script that could copy strings of a a certain color (red, for example) and load them into an array?

    Hi Tim, there isn’t any script, that will fit your needs, but this script can be written for you.

    There is a free script written by Peter Kahrel that may do what you want.
    Here is a link. https://www.kahrel.plus.com/indesign/grep_query_manager.html

    Here is a description for one of the features the script has. I copied the description off of his site.

    Collect found items
    Rather than executing the selected queries, you can instead collect whatever the query or queries match and print the found results in a new file. Your document is not changed at all. To collect the found items, check Collect found items. The found items are listed in a new document, sorted, and any duplicates and formatting are removed. To leave formatting intact, check Include format.
