Find/change items using queries

You can find and change text, objects, and glyphs by using or constructing a query. A query is a defined find-and-change
operation. InDesign offers several preset queries for changing punctuation formats and other useful actions, such as
changing telephone number formats. By saving a query you constructed, you can run it again and share it with others.

Search using queries

1

Choose Edit > Find/Change.

2

Choose a query from the Query list.

The queries are grouped by type.

3

Specify a range to search on the Search menu.

The search range is not stored with the query.

4

Click Find.

5

To continue searching, click Find Next, Change (to change the most recently found text or punctuation mark),
Change All (a message indicates the total number of changes), or Change/Find (to change text or punctuation marks
and continue your search).

After you select a search query, you can adjust the settings to fine-tune your search.

Save queries

Save a query in the Find/Change dialog box if you want to run it again or share it with others. The names of queries you
save appear in the Query list in the Find/Change dialog box.

1

Choose Edit > Find/Change.

2

Select Text, GREP, or a different tab to undertake the search you want.

3

Below the Search menu, click icons to determine whether items such as locked layers, master pages, and footnotes
are included in the search.

These items are included in the saved query. However, the range of the search isn’t saved with the query.
