How to write a macro for bolding text between quotes

Thanks, I will try to record a macro with this...

One more question, I noticed now that some words in brackets are in uppercase letters. eg. (WORD) how can I make all letters or words in brackets to default back to lower case?

Thanks so much for the above macros. You saved me many hours of work.

That requires a rather more complicated macro to loop though each of the found ranges and change their case. Such a macro appears in: https://www.msofficeforums.com/141361-post2.html. The code there can be integrated into the code in the previous link I posted.
