Question run vba script in word for removing certain characters

Ok,

Here is the challenge, I need to remove all instances of brackets, speech marks and * in a word document.

How do i string together the requests either in the CTRL H find and replace function or in VBA.

The problem arises when the information is being transferred into a word template from MS Forms.

It leaves the brackets etc in when i change the docx into doc.



I have done it as something like this \[*\] but i want to string them together to include "*" for example and few others for one button press.

I dont know how to connect them?

I am a total amateur obviously. Help
