In Word, I would like to position to a point in a document, then do a Find
that will cause selection from my search start point through the find point.
For example if my document contains the alphabet, I can be positioned before
the letter "c", find "v", and expect "c" through "v" to be highlighted. Is
there any way to do this using the User Interface?

Yes.

Search for your starting point using the find dialog box. Once you
have found what you want, activate the document. (You can do that by
closing the find dialog box, or by clicking on the title bar of your
document, you do not want to "unselect" your found item.)
Press the F8 key which will turn on the Extend selection.
Alternatively, you can double click the EXT button on your status bar.
Now, find your ending point. Word will then have highlighted the
entire range.
