How do you change out a flex line on a natural gas appliance?
I assume there is not a shut off on the supply side of the line. If you are used to working with gas, you can do it with the line charged, but it is probably best to shut the gas off at the main. If there is not a shut off valve where the flex line connects, I would put one there now. Then it is just a matter of changing the line. Do not use any pipe dope or tape on a gas connection, at least on the flex line. This is a flare fitting and does not require it. The valve to pipe connection is a plumbing connection and should have dope or tape on the threads.

Can you run a gas line to a BBQ grill that uses bottled propane or is that a different kind of grill?
If you have a grill that uses bottled propane, you can have a gas line run directly to it. You'll want to hire a pro to do the job for you so that the installation is a safe one. Most areas require that gas lines be run by plumbers and then approved by an inspector. Most gas grills use propane as fuel, running a gas line to the grill would not be enough. There are grill conversion kits to make your propane grill run off of the natural gas line in your home. These kits can be found at most stores that sell or service grills.
