I think...I think I managed.

Replacing

I used
Quote:
Method 2: Use Key Combinations in the Find and Replace Dialog Box

1. On the Edit menu, click Replace.
2. Delete any existing text from the Find what and Replace with boxes.
3. Click in the Find what box.
4. Press key combinations such as CTRL+U, CTRL+I, or CTRL+B to move through underline, italic, or bold formatting choices. Each time you press the key combination, the format changes. When you select an existing format, such as Bold, it changes to its opposite (Not Bold). Selecting it again clears the option completely.
5. Click in the Replace with box.
6. Repeat step 4 to select the format you want to apply.
7. Click the Find Next, Replace, or Replace All button.
Note:
I would like add a small clarification for step 6 (if you are as silly as I am, probably it is easy to understand from the instructions but I missed the point).
I thought it is fairly straight forward.
CTRL+U in "Find"
CTRL+I in "Replace"
click Replace All and that it is. No! It converted all underlined text to Italic, yes, but it was left underlined nonetheless.

To convert it from underlined to italic
In "Replace" click CTRL+U twice, so it says "No underline" beneath "Replace with" command line. Then click CTRL+I.
