Default applying macro to a selected text only

Hi

Is there a way to apply a macro to a selected text only, whether the text is
a word, phrase, sentence, or paragraph? The macro is rather simple, a
recorded macro that removes vowels:

Selection.Find.ClearFormatting
Selection.Find.Replacement.ClearFormatting
With Selection.Find
.Text = "[aeiouAEIOU]"
.Replacement.Text = ""
.Forward = True
.Wrap = wdFindContinue
.MatchWildcards = True
End With
Selection.Find.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
End Sub
