Memberthanks so much for this, Aaron! I had partial success.
This didn’t find anyhting: ^\d+(?!\.)$ but removing the ^ and replacing with a £ worked (i have a mixture of GBP and Euro prices (no $ symbols for this file). But very oddly, it wouldn’t work when I used € symbol, even though I copied and pasted it from the page.
The second search you provided didn’t find any results either, even when removing the ^ character.
Any guesses?

Memberthe whole numbers do not have a decimal at the end, but are followed by either an en dash, forced line break, or end of paragraph.

MemberRe: normal “one-mouse” use…
I grip the mouse with my thumb and pinky finger, click and hold with index, and use middle finger for the scrolling. Granted, I have a Logitech mouse that's sculpted to fit your hand, with a raised scroll wheel. I doubt I'd be able to do the same with the Mac Mighty Mouse, there's jsut not enough surface space.

MemberDid they change the Preference to “When scaling: Adjust Precentage” instead of “apply to content”? I believe that's one of the preferences that travels with files, so would be showing up, even though it's not a setting you changed. The option is found under the General scetion of the Preferences.

MemberAre you sure these swatches aren't coming from a placed AI or eps file? That's where undeletable swatches came from last time I had this problem. If so, you can edit the placed files, or use the ink manager to merge the swatches with the CMYK equivilant in ID.

MemberAny idea if Adobe is exploring adding the option, like Photoshop does? Seems odd this feature is so inconsistant across the Creative Suite programs.

MemberYou have to use Acrobat Pro (not Reader) to mkae the interactive button. Use the submit button, with the submit via email option. You'll be able to specify the mail to address, subject line, and what format you want the form data to be attached. There's an option to just have the user completed form pdf sent back.
The last step is to enable end user rights, which lets the user save the pdf prior to sending. Once you do that you can't open that pdf to edit the form, so be sure you save a copy before enabling.
So far as I know, there's no other way to do that sort of interactivty from InDesign.

Memberwhy have two paragraphs breaks? could replace those with single paragraph break and increase the space after, that way the space after and bolding the first line can all be part of the paragraph style, allowing you to change them as needed.

Member“Curve” as in following along a cuvred path? To do that, create a curved path (use pen tool, elipise frame tool) to create the curved path, then use the Type on a Path tool (located under the normal type tool) to click on path, and add your text. Afterwards you can use the selcetion tools to adjsut the path and how your text fits along the path.

MemberYou can certainly create a nested style the stops at the comma, just type a comma in the drop down field. Although it appears like you're limited by the optioon on the drop down, you're not. You can enter just about anything into that field, including whole words and the shorthand codes for special characeters (ie: ^t is a Tab).

MemberIs there a rotate/twirly icon next to the page/spread? It sounds like the spread is rotated, which also rotates the pasteboard, resulting in a very tall, but narrow pasteboard, just as you're describing. If you zoom out really far, you should be able to see the differences of the wonky pasteboard and the normal, non-rotated ones.

MemberIt looks like a Nested Style paragraph style would be easiest. Set it to apply your Bold character style through the first comma, then None applied for the rest of the paragraph (assuming each entry is on it's own line). Then you'd only need to import the data in a way that maintains the paragraph breaks. Then I'd select all the text, apply the nested style, and go back and manually apply your pink headers where needed. You might also need to manually apply your bold to band names that contain commas (the nested style stops applying after the first one).
That's my 2 cents, some one else might have an even easier way.

MemberYou might have some corrupted preferences or a bad install. Try resetting your prefences and see if that help, if not, you might need uninstall and reinstall. These don't sound like bugs others have reported (so won't be corrected by an update) and probably unique to you're installation.

MemberIt sounds like you might have turned on your Application Frame by accident? Check you Preferences or Window>Application Frame. Without a screenshot, it's rather hard to picture what you're describing, if it's not an issue with the Application Frame.

MemberTry updating/reinstalling your Wacom driver to address issue #1. My coworker used a tablet exclusively (bamboo model, I think) and hasn't had a single problem with it and CS5.
Likewise with InDesign, we haven't had any problem opening, saving or editing all of our legacy files after a couple months of using CS5.
