keeping only selected data

[Guest]

In my document I have different paragraphs, I would like to select multiple
paragraphs and then print of only these selected paragraphs, all the
unselected paragraphs would be removed.

Any help with this would be great.

Not quite sure what's wanted here, but for a quick manual solution this is
what I'd do:

Select all and mark text as 'Hidden'.

Mark the paragraphs you want, as you select them, as 'not hidden'. (To do
this quickly, use the shortcut Ctl-Shift-H.)

Print the document (standard options will not print hidden text) - or if you
prefer, use Find and Replace to delete hidden text first.

How about file > print > page range > selection?

or a macro

Sub PrintSelectedText()
On Error GoTo oops
Selection.Copy
Documents.Add
Selection.Paste
Application.PrintOut FileName:=""
ActiveDocument.Close SaveChanges:=False
End
oops:
MsgBox "Select the text you wish to print first!"
End Sub
