Default Selecting Text within a document with known start/stop (+searching and tools)

We have documents that have a section with a known start, which starts on its own page. This section ends with a "Section Break (Next Page)".




Looks like this:


[new page]
TITLE THAT IS KNOWN
[multiple paragraphs of text]
[Section Break (Next Page)]


I'd like to select everything between TITLE THAT IS KNOWN and [Section Break (Next Page)].


Is this possible?


And, if you had this problem, how would you go about searching for a solution and what tools do you use?



I get pages like this:


Working with the Selection Object | Microsoft Learn


Selecting Text in a Document | Microsoft Learn


Which are effectively useless. And, I don't get links into this forum. Does the forum search here work better than searching via a search engine? Are their additional tools/locations that might have examples/answers?



Thank you.
