I am not sure if this is easy or not? I have a document that regularly I have to bring into Word and manipulate as it is too long for Excel. There are some lines that I want to delete, each starts with a space and then a 3 digit numeric always starting with a 0. These are detail lines and if they were deleted I could export into Excel and deal with the remainder there. Any ideas how to achieve this? Alll help gratefully accepted.

It sounds like a job designed for Regular Expressions. These are excellent for selections based on a clearly defined pattern.
