Default Find and Replace "find what text"

In a long list of references, I'm trying to find each instance of a calendar year and replace it with that same year enclosed by parentheses. For example, find "1991" and replace with "(1991)"; find "2007" and replace it with "(2007)". I have no problem finding the years, but can't seem to crack the code on replacing and inserting the parens.
