I need to use wildcards in Word to search for a string starting with "p." followed by up to 3 digits followed by a period. Eg. p.5., p.54., p.139.



I then need to make it superscript and change the colour.

And, what have you tried?

Learn to use Styles for formatting. A style can be one of the things used in the Replace function.

Try the following wildcard Find/Replace:
Find = p.[0-9]{1,}.
Replace = ^&
Don't forget to associate the Replace with box with Superscript and color Font format.
