Hi
I have a macro that produces a special character ( ?) which I put into
foreign words to help me remember how to pronounce them.
The character in the macro is produced by the following lines
Application.Keyboard (1028)
Selection.TypeText Text:=ChrW(61440)
How can I insert this character into Word's search engine in order to look
for any words with this character.
If I highlight a word beginning with this character, Word just ignores it
(if it is the first letter) or divides the word into two (if it is in the
middle)
Thanks in advance.
