Default Find and replace formatting

In the "Find what" box, press Ctrl+U; you will see the words "Format:
Underline" under the box.

In the "Replace with" box, press Ctrl+U twice, then Ctrl+I; you will see
"Format: Font: Italic, No underline."

Replace All.

Is there a way to run a find and replace command on a type of formatting
rather than a word string? I need to change all underlines in a 100
page document to italics--and there are hundreds of them!

Thanks,
s.
