October 5, 2022 4:52 pmI just had my first instance of needing this script, and I can’t get it to work. The list of paragraph styles is blank, and I’m not sure how to make it populate. Clicking “Update list” doesn’t seem to have an effect.
I saved a screenshot at https://i.imgur.com/GdppbYP.jpg
As you can see, the document has numerous paragraph styles, but the list in the script dialog is empty. Find/change is set to the space before I need to change, but in the script dialog it thinks I’m looking for italic.

Everything seems correct, except for the fact that you’re using the GREP tab in the Find/Change dialog.
For Search in Styles, you should use the regular “Text” tab.
