Applescript for Word 2008

Applescript written for Word Mac 2008 (note, it must work with the 2008 version of Word) that converts all words in a document that are in italics into the tagged form . For example, if the word "test" is in italics, the script should change it to <i>test</i>. If the phrase "hello test" is in italics, the script should change it to <i>hello test</i>. It should do this for all italic words or phrases in a document.
