What exactly do you want to do?
1. Indent all paragraphs beginning with “Speaker2:”?
2. Replace the text after “Speaker2:” with something else? With what exactly? Or do you want to remove (erase) all text after “Speaker2:”?
3. Put the paragraphs beginning with “Speaker2:” wholly in italics? Or only put the text after “Speaker2:” in italics? Today 04:14 AM
Yes to 1.
No to 2, I don't want to replace any text.
Yes to 3 but I want everything Italics. Speakers name and the Text.

Speaker1: Text
Speaker2: Text
Speaker1: Text
Speaker2: Text
So I put in FIND Speaker2: but I don't know how to define the text after to select the text up the paragraph.


Thank you. I have tried to figure it out but with no luck today. My Logic was to FIND Speaker2: ^p, but that doesn't work.

Look into Styles, also. If needed can be used with Find and Replace.
If you are not using Styles to format your text, especially in a longer document, you are making a BIG mistake.
Thank you.
