Thank you for the quick response, David. Just tried doing as you suggested but I must be doing something stupid because the “$1” bit is replacing the text that needs to be within the tags. For instance:

This is a nice book. (where nice is in bold)

…turns into:

This is a <i>$1</i> book.

How can I make Indesign see $1 as a wildcard variable for the text being tagged?
