Cannot set language from macro in Word 2007.

F

Frank Thynne

I have a selection that includes some Unicode characters (specifically
Pinyin). The pinyins are treated as if Chinese and are rendered using
the font for Far Eastern Text, which is Simsun. I want these to be
rendered as TimesNewRoman, and if I set the selection of the language
to EnglishUK, the change takes place as I expect.

However, I need to do this in a macro that generates the selected
text. If I record the steps in a macro, the change takes place as I
record it. But If I then use the recorded macro to do the same thing,
the changes do not occur.

I cannot find a work-round. Does anyone have any ideas?
