      Hi all

      I know this is a quick one, but I just can’t quite work it out correclty. I’ve got a 40 page doc (each page is a business card) and we’ve changed the format from TitleCase to lowercase

      How do I search for:

      Every character that appears before ‘@’ and change it to lower case. For example:

      [email protected]

      to

      [email protected]

      Thanks!

      Try this one:

      (function () {
      app.findGrepPreferences = null;
      app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = '[\\S]+?(?=@)';
      var found = app.documents[0].findGrep();
      for (var i = found.length-1; i >= 0; i--) {
      found[i].changecase (ChangecaseMode.LOWERCASE);
      }
      }());
