In my document, there are scattered recurring lines of text, all of
which start with the same format of numbers, and end with a

delete all lines of text that start with "XXXXXX 070" and end with
"XX:XX" (I have minot familiarity with basic symbols used in "search
and replace," and am using them in making a small macro.)
