Default how to format only a specific character or number in each cell withina range of cells

I am sending this to several Excel newsgroups, because I am not sure
which one if the most appropriate. I apologize in advance for the
multiple postings. I have MS Excel 2000 (version 9.0.3821 SR-1). How
can I format only a selected character or number within each cell in a
specific range of cells? For instance if I have a cell containing
“1234234”, how can I format it so that only the 2’s are bold or are
colored? Obviously, I have a range of cells, and I want to format all
the 2’s occurring in any of the cells as either bold or colored.
Conditional formatting does not seem to allow me to do this, and I have
been unable to find a formula that will accomplish this. Can someone help?
Thank you.
Colleen
