    Re: how do i found italics word from my document

    you can loop through every character in the document and check if font.italic = true, or you can use the word find method to find italic font strings, which is probably the better option
    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed

    You can Record a Macro and see how Word does it.


    Code:
    Sub Macro1()
    '
    ' Macro1 Macro
    '
    '
        Selection.Find.ClearFormatting
        Selection.Find.Font.Italic = True
        Selection.Find.Replacement.ClearFormatting
        With Selection.Find.Replacement.Font
            .Bold = False
            .Italic = False
        End With
        With Selection.Find
            .Text = ""
            .Replacement.Text = ""
            .Forward = True
            .Wrap = wdFindContinue
            .Format = True
            .MatchCase = False
            .MatchWholeWord = False
            .MatchWildcards = False
            .MatchSoundsLike = False
            .MatchAllWordForms = False
        End With
        Selection.Find.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
    End Sub

    Just change your macro. Record one like I linked you to and do your task as you wish.
