Find All Lines That DO NOT Contain [This] • InDesign GREP

[@Rocadamis]

Another great video Kayla! I love GREP stuff and do a bit of it myself. Here's a little extra help with this particular issue. Do a GREP that puts the search parameters into parentheses so they can be replaced in the Change to: field. Here's the code I tested: Find what: (^\w+)([^,]+?)$ -This looks for any line that is missing a comma like your code. Change to: $1,$2 - then this adds a comma in the missing space If searching for the missing period after the middle initial you don't need the parentheses: Find what: ^\w+[^.]+?$ Change to: $0. Of course, this solution will have problems with last names that are two words, like "de Lamour" or "Von Rickenbacher", etc. However, these might be searched for in a separate Find command.
