Find and high light all numbers in a certain range: MS Word 2013

Using Microsoft Word 2013, how do I highlight all numbers in a certain range.

I already found out how to find and highlight all of a certain number, but this would be a big help.

Example: I want to find all numbers between 2300 and 2500 and highlight them. Each number however might be *.2300 *.2301 etc.

Worst case senario, highlighting just any number in a range is the ultimate question, a prefix of *. is only a plus.

update to question: Note: To state exactly what I am doing - I have a document where a netstat was run on about 100 different machines. the numbers are mixed up with tons of other information. Copying and pasting the numbers to another program would take as much time as highlighting the numbers myself with the highlight tool. Thank you all for your answers so far and I appreciate the advise. I am starting to think the answer may be "No" in word and "Yes" in another program.
