I changed my app by adding a few more files to search and now it doesn't work at all! - once again. with or without "starting at top". I can't find any references to how to use the list of matches returned when "returning results" is selected. I can't access the "found matches" although the error messages show that they exist and look like your example: {found:true, found object:characters 22 thru 32 of text document 1 of application "BBEdit", found text:"name=\"I1267"} How do you get at this?
