Try this:
Using Word Find & Replace:

Check the 'Use Wildcards' box
In the Find box, type

Code:

_(*)_

In the Replace box, type

Code:

\1

then [Ctrl]-I or Format - Font - Italic to specify Italics

Then press the 'Replace All' button

Attached is a screencap of the Find/Replace box in Word so you can see what it should look like.
Caveat: My version of Word is pretty old. The box may have changed.
