Is there anyway to locate the objects that use a specific color in InDesign? I know about finding fonts that have an assignment color using find/change, but was wondering if there's a utility that will show specific objects using a spot color?

I'd find this useful too. The only problem with separations preview is that there can be a space or other invisible object in the rogue colour so you can't find it. I often get files where people have used, say, two versions of a spot colour and separations preview sorts most of it out - then I just delete the remaining colour and replace it with one I am using. If the remaining objects are invisible it makes no odds.

You can preview the spot color objects using the seperetion preview. Under >window>output>seperetion preview. I could not find any other way to select all objects of one spot color as you can in Illustrator. I would like to be able to Hide and Show objects as in Illustrator too.
