Yes, the first can be done with some vba code that searches for the word and
then sets a Range variable to the .Range of the Selection.Bookmarks("\line")
range.

This will give you an idea of the syntax

Selection.HomeKey wdStory
Selection.Find.ClearFormatting
With Selection.Find
Do While .Execute(FindText:="[0-9]{1,}.[0-9]{3,}", MatchWildcards: =
True, Wrap:=wdFindContinue, Forward:=True) = True
Selection.Range.Text = Round(Selection.Range.Text, 2)
Loop
End With

The second you can do with a wildcard Replace.

I have MS Office 2003. What is the best way to copy text into application
and then extract only the lines containing certain word? Can I do that with
MS Word?

Is there also a way to replace text in line with blanks after certain
delimeter?

Thanks for information.
