For clarity, Word does regex, not just wildcards. It's not quite as complete
as what you'd get with some other environments such as OpenOffice Writer since
matching is lazy rather than greedy which can be a big deal depending on what
you're doing

Hi all,
I am working my way through teaching myself regex to parse
Hi Matt!
You can match a string of all caps letters like [A-Z]. Those brackets say
match anything inside and the hyphen indicates the full range of capital
letters.
You cannot, unfortunately, match italics since that's formatting and not
text. Regex is really only meant for strings of characters
I think I figured out the all-caps need, see http://regexr.com/3bbfi

This works if you are limited to English. But
In the case of xml, I think xpath is the simpler tool.

Re: italics, my hunch is that you could do so if you got hold of the xml
behind the word doc, which I'd assume would have something like an
`italic` tags or attribute
Thanks everyone, this really helps. I'll have to work out the italicized
stuff, but this gets me much closer.

Y'all are doing this the hard way. Word allows regex replacements as well
as format based criteria.
For this particular use case:
1. Open the find/replace dialog (CTL+H)
2. In the Find what box, put (*) -- make sure the option for Use
Wildcards is selected, and for the format, specify
