Peter,

Thanks for the help. What you suggested was very close. I made one tweak and it does the trick. It needed a "tell master spreads" inside the "tell document" call. I've included the slight revision below.

>set cFindText to "6-30-2003"
>set cReplaceText to "9-30-2003"
>tell application "InDesign"
> activate
> tell document 1
> tell master spreads
> search (text frames whose label is "Footer") for cFindText replacing with cReplaceText
> end tell
> end tell
>end tell

Happy Automation! :-)
