Adobe InDesign/changing underline style to italic font

Question
I need to change all the occurrences of Palatino Roman + underline to Palatino
Italic in a large document. Is there a way to do a search and find to do them all? I
tried it in Find/Replace but can't figure out how to do it for the many different
words in the document.

Answer
eh,

there really isn't a quicker way to do it, but you can set your work to character styles so that next time you want to change something, it'll be faster.

make your italic change to a word. Highlight it. Go to window, character styles, press the new button (looks like a postit) everything should now be set for you. give the character style a name and press ok. Highlight a word, press the new character style, done!
