Find and Replace "^&" no longer working

Hi all,

I used to be able to do a quick search for all italicized words and phrases in a document and put the html codes on either side of them with a search and replace. That's no longer working. Anyone know why or how I can get it working again?
I used to leave the Find window blank and choose italics in the Font window; put <i>^&</i> in the Replace window and hit Replace all. Now I get garbage--hundreds of pages of <i></i> and none of my italics marked.
Thanks!
Merry
