ParticipantThere’re 4 types of “Story” in InDesign you can’t thread between them: “Common” (regular story), TOC, Index and … Endnotes!
That’s the orthodoxy as how ID works!
Does that mean you can’t play with “endnotes” in a “common” story?…

Participant… Of course, use a “Table” would give more flexibility but the user would loose the endnotes if cut-pasted in a table or if the endnotes paras were “converted” to a table.
A cool way by script (tested) would be:
Make the endnotes “invisible” before getting their data to be inserted in a table created by the Script!
If update needed (locally or in all the doc), just 1 click again.
… And the user could simply choose a numbering per column!
… And the user could apply an hyperlink to the cell to come back to the endnote source!
… And the user could apply a “graphic effect” to the cell!
… And blablabla!(^/)

ParticipantSo … it could be totally automatic if you don’t use a table but paragraph borders!

ParticipantIs each answer (in the note) a single para?

Participant…
if ( items.itemLayer.name == “specific layer name” ) {
try {
fileName = File(items.graphics[0].itemLink.filePath).name;
fileName = fileName.replace(/\.[a-z]{2,4}$/i, “.jpg”);
} catch (e) {};
app.jpegExportPreferences.exportResolution = 200;
app.jpegExportPreferences.jpegQuality = JPEGOptionsQuality.HIGH;
//give it a unique name
var myFile = new File( myPath + “/” + fileName );
items.graphics[0].exportFile( ExportFormat.JPG, myFile );

ParticipantNo sense for me!
The question is about what enrichment “before/after :”!
That means what choice an user has to make first defining the para style as “regular” or “bold” font style!
E.g., (s)he will use a “^.+?:” Grep style to bold text before in a “regular” para style! …
Which clearly means: (s)he will only want to bold if “:”!About the use or not of Grep styles, I think the true matter boils down to the Grep trivial knowledge.

Participant3 nested styles:
[None] up to :
[None] up to 1 characters
Bold through End Nested Style Character(^/)

ParticipantJust a simplistic Grep Style:
:\K.+$
or, if you could have a soft-return in your paras:
:\K(.|)+$

ParticipantHi David,
However, this humble and respectful tribute didn’t seem to be appreciated by all! …
In particular, Erica Gamet and/or Anne-Marie Concepcion who deleted the YouTube link and the corresponding message from the InDesignSecrets Facebook group!
Imho, totally awkward! … More: completely inappropriate and contemptible.(^/) ;-(

Participant… In this particular and simplistic case:
Find:
(\$)(\d+)\.(\d+)(?=(CA|US))
Replace by:
