Default Replace

Hello,
Is it possible to replace words that are written in capital letters with the
same word in capital and bold using "edit - replace"?
Since the document is over 50 pages long it is very tedious to mark every
capitalized word and press control + B.
I hope there is an easier way.
Thanks

Default Replace

All words in capitals?
Replace
[A-Z]{2,}
with
^& (format font bold)
with the wildcard option set.
This will embolden all words in upper case of at least 2 letters.
