Hi MadBriT,

If the 'whole line' is a paragraph, you could use a wildcard Find/Replace, where:
Find = [!\(^13]{1,}\([!^13]{1,}
Replace = ^&
and the replacement font format is set to bold.

Note: The Find code now only looks for paragraphs with the opening bracket, then selects all the text in the paragraph concerned. To make the Find/Replace more efficient, you could specify the Find text as 'Not Bold', but that will only be of use if none of the text is already bolded.
