Default How to globally modify (color) varying strings of text?

Hello,


I have a large Word file with thousands of strings likes this:
<%=Node6_b_16b_CompDentalOtherPartB_MaxPlanAmt%>
Always enclosed in < and >
I need to color the text of all those strings (including the brackets).
I can find all instances of those strings using \<*\> but am at a lost in knowing what the regex should be at the “Replace With” field in order to preserve the text.
I would greatly appreciate any help

Never mind. The answer, I see now, is beyond simple:
Nothing in the "Replace With" field, just the specification of the color I want.
Live and learn. . .
