I am having problems writing a script. The script selects a defined area and searches the area for text. The text that is found will be cut, reformated for COLOR, FONT, INSERTION POINT, etc. and reinserted at a predefined point. I have done this before but I have lost my old script file. Can someone help me with this script?

I assume you are referring to a lisp routine (.lsp) rather than a script file (.scr), as that task is beyond what a script could handle.
