When I had to do something similar, I wrote a macro :-) If you do not know much about macros, you probably need to record one, and I expect that the macro recorder is poor enough that the only real solution would be to do the first one by hand, copy the correct result to the clipboard, then record a macro that pastes the value and then searches for the next occurrence. If you are left with a regular m2 selection, run the macro again. if not, well, you are finished.
