A good place to start is to record a macro from within Word.
Create 10 lines of text, start recording a macro then move down to the line you'd like to delete from. Once done, hold shift and keep pressing down until you have the desired text selected. Now press delete and stop the macro recording.
I did this and got some VBA code. Following that I recorded another macro that just captured the pressing of the Ctrl-Home key combination. After this I just recorded a macro of me typing 10 lines.
Putting them all together, I got a macro that would create 85 lines of text, before selecting lines 38-77 and deleting them.
This is VBA code - you can convert it to VB without terribly much fuss.
Sub createThenDeleteText()
Dim curLine As Integer
Dim curStr As String
For curLine = 1 To 85
curStr = "Line" + Str(curLine) + vbCrLf
Selection.TypeText (curStr)
Next curLine
Selection.HomeKey Unit:=wdStory
Dim firstLine As Integer, lastLine As Integer
firstLine = 38
lastLine = 77
Selection.MoveDown Unit:=wdLine, Count:=(firstLine - 1)
Selection.MoveDown Unit:=wdLine, Count:=(lastLine - firstLine + 1), Extend:=wdExtend
Selection.Delete Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1
End Sub
