Hi,
Checking applied color must be scan all objects!! of the document,
Here is a code, it scans texts and frame objects(Text Frame, Rectangle,,,,)
but not support table and cell.
mg
Thanks
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var mySwatch = doc.colors;
var flag = 0;
for (var i=0; i < mySwatch.length; i++){
    if (mySwatch[i].model == ColorModel.SPOT){
       flag += 1;
if ( flag > 1 ){
    check_spot(doc);
else{
     alert("no spot color");
function check_spot (doc) {
     // scan text story exclude table and cell
     var flg2 = flg3 = flg4 = flg5 = 0
     var story_obj = doc.stories;
     for (var sti=0, stiL=story_obj.length; sti < stiL ; sti++) {
          var tsr_obj = story_obj[sti].textStyleRanges;
          for (var tsi=0, tsiL=tsr_obj.length; tsi < tsiL ; tsi++) {
               try{
                    if (tsr_obj[tsi].fillColor.model == ColorModel.SPOT) {
                         flg2 += 1;               
               }catch(e){$.writeln(e);}
               try{
                    if (tsr_obj[tsi].strokeColor.model == ColorModel.SPOT) {
                         flg3 += 1;               
               }catch(e){$.writeln(e);}
     // scan pageitem
     var all_p_item = doc.allPageItems;
     for (var api=0, apiL=all_p_item.length; api < apiL ; api++) {
          try{
               if (all_p_item[api].fillColor.model == ColorModel.SPOT) {
                    flg4 += 1;
          }catch(e){$.writeln(e);}
          try{
               if (all_p_item[api].strokeColor.model == ColorModel.SPOT) {
                    flg5 += 1;               
          }catch(e){$.writeln(e);}
     // result message
     if ( flg2 > 0 || flg3 > 0 || flg4 > 0 || flg5 > 0 ) {
          var tx_fill_color   = flg2 > 0 ? "used spotcolor in text fill " + flg2 + "part" : "";
          var tx_stroke_color = flg3 > 0 ? "used spotcolor in text stroke " + flg3 + "part" : "";
          var pi_fill_color   = flg4 > 0 ? "used spotcolor in page item fill " + flg4 + "part" : "";
          var pi_stroke_color = flg5 > 0 ? "used spotcolor in page item stroke " + flg5 + "part" : "";
          var rslt = [tx_fill_color, tx_stroke_color, pi_fill_color, pi_stroke_color].join('\n')
          alert("result\n" + rslt);
