Tested it now, it seems it's not pure regex but does some 
transformation/magic, probably assuming the format will be 
letter-number or forcing match from the beginning of the refdes, I'm not 
sure.

What worked for me, for 100-199 is this: .1[0-9][0-9]

So the trick is that it really wants to match the letter in your case, so 
we give it a . that matches anything.
