Michel Allio for FRIdNGE
ParticipantI would apply the data merging on just the .idms files name as:
@<<idms>>@
The .txt source file would be:
idms
xxx.idmsThe data merging would give:
@xxx.idms@
Then a simple Script would import the .idms inside the InDesign doc.

Participant… You could exclude some paras as Titles searching their style and applying a condition.
After that, always basically:
F: [^.\r]$ + no condition
R: $0.(trash the condition after use.)

The question is: ““Search for Style X where indent is not 11-pt.””
Regex 1:
Find: a para style “X” with the indent “11 pt”
Replace by: a “condition”, called “11 pt” to all the right paras found.Regex 2:
Find: the para style “X” with “no condition” ==> that will find all the paras with bad indent.
Replace by: the indent “11 pt” + para style “X”But why not place the cursor in a right para with the para style “X” and re-initialize it to override all the bad ones in the same time!? No really need Grep
… Or maybe I’ve not clearly understood the question! ;-)

ParticipantAs I often say, It’s simple to play this kind of game! ;-)
1/ Search the para style X with the right Indent and apply a condition.
2/ Search the para style X without condition and apply the right indent … applying the para style X!
