This video shows how to do a search-and-replace in a Word document with THL Word styles in order to mark milestone text strings with the appropriate Word Style. The process for replacing page milestones is as follows:
From the edit menu open search and replace
From the gear menu open "Advanced Find & Replace"
Open the options drop down and choose "Use Wildcards"
In the "Find What" box, type: (\[[0-9]@\])
In the "Replace with" box, type: \1

If it performs correctly, push the "Replace All" button.
