Mars, you can achieve it using a Text Find/Change, here is how:

1) First copy the graphic element that you want in place of the text
2) Then, go to Find/Change dialog box, and
3) Enter the Text to be replaced in the “Find What:” field
4) In the “Change to:” field type the code ^c (Clipboard contents, Formatted)
5) Do the Find/Change, to complete the process

Text Find Change:
Find what: your text to replace
Change to: ^c

Unfortunately, you cannot achieve this using the styles, this type of action can only be done using Find/Change. Hope that works:

PS: If there is a text pattern instead of a regular text, then this can be achieved using the GREP Find/Change. Please let me know, I’ll try it.
