    When I have this issue, instead of putting aline break, I put a big enough indent to make part of the title move onto a second line and then apply “no break”to the words I want to stick together. It works perfectly.

    Ha! I had figured this out slightly differently, or perhaps the same with different details. I did find text style with first line indent 11 pt and change those paragraphs to another color — in this case a custom blue. Then find the text style colored black and change it to first line indent 11 pt. Then delete the blue color from my color list. Voilà. I thought maybe there was a more clever way to do it, but perhaps I am more clever than I think!

    Or, could you write that script for me?

    Thanks for this and for your super-speedy answer. I already do that whole thing before I import, but those indents have had me stymied! (I’ve actually even made some more steps to account for the special mess my editor makes when inserting complicated diacritics into Word. I can tell you if you are interested!

    There may be a more elegant way of doing this with a grep style, but short of that, I would do it with variable in two or three stages:
    First I would do a find/change with 4 of the number variable (^9), a decimal point/period then 2 numbers, a space and the Euro sign (^9^9^9^9. ^9^9 €) in the find box, and just the Euro sign in the change box.
    If some of your prices have only 1, 2 or 3 numbers before the decimal point, you can do a second search after you have completed the first one. This time you do ^9^9^9. ^9^9 €) in the find box, and just the Euro sign in the change box, and so on.

    Can someone tell me how to get the script shown above into my list of scripts in Indesign?

    Eugene and Dwayne, Thanks for this! I’ve had this niggly problem that I could never figure out: Why does Indesign keep adding a space to the end of some of my running heads when I didn’t have an ending space tagged with the running head variable character style? This has fixed it and I am delighted.
