------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Aug 18 07:33:24 -0700 2006 ------- My company produces a product called "WinLims". In accordance with our style guide the text "Win" should be rendered in one font and colour, and "Lims" in a different font and colour. When writing the instruction manuals it is convenient to ignore the style guide, and apply the formatting to every instance of the text using Find & Replace once the manual is completed. Character styles have been created for the two parts of the text. We would like to "Find All" to select every occurrance of "WinLims", then "Find All" with "Current Selection Only" checked to highlight all the relevant instances of "Win". We would then like to apply the character style, or alternatively set the font and colour using the Formatting toolbar. The process is then repeated for "Lims". If the word "WinLims" appears in the Table of Contents or the Index then we are unable to change the formatting of all of the other occurrances because these indexes are protected. Manually deselecting the entries doesn't re-enable the formatting tools. Un-protecting the indexes allows us to make the changes but requires us to manually un-protect each of them first, then make our changes, then re-apply protection, however this quickly gets annoying as there are several indexes in this document. If you forget to un-protect one of the indexes before performing the search operations then the act of accessing the Edit Index/Table dialogue to do so results in all of the selected text being de-selected and the search has to be repeated. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
