Grep replace issue

i'm trying grep in scripting modify style of words designated markup. example: "the ^sun^ , ^moon^ celestial bodies."

 

app.findgreppreferences.findwhat = "(\^.+?\^)"

i use grep statemen find "^sun^" , "^moon^", , can change characterstyle, i want remove "^" marks @ same time if possible.

 

is there way set expression in .tochange property can replace selection between two  "^" marks? is, want change "^xxx^" become "xxx".

app.findgreppreferences.findwhat = "\^(.+?)\^"

app.changegreppreferences.changeto = "$1"
