Hi toolic!
This is a dynamic situation, so range operators won't do.
I want to remove the text starting at "COMMENT" and
just before the line that starts with FEATURES.
LOCUS       4                     302276 bp    DNA     linear   HTG 31

DEFINITION  Mus musculus chromosome 4 NCBIM37 partial sequence

ACCESSION   chromosome:NCBIM37:4:138489260:138791535:-1

COMMENT     This sequence was annotated by the Ensembl system. Please 
+visit
            the Ensembl web site, http://www.ensembl.org/ for more
            information.
            All feature locations are relative to the first (5') base 
+of the
            sequence in this file. The sequence presented is always th
+e
            forward strand of the assembly. Features that lie outside 
+of the
            sequence contained in this file have clonal location coord
+inates
            in the format: <clone accession>.<version>:<start>..<end>
            The /gene indicates a unique id for a gene,
            /note="transcript_id=..." a unique id for a transcript,
            /protein_id a unique id for a peptide and note="exon_id=..
+." a
            unique id for an exon. These ids are maintained wherever p
+ossible
            between versions.
            All the exons and transcripts in Ensembl are confirmed by
            similarity to either protein or cDNA sequences.
