Dealing with Complex scripts in VBA

[RUDIK]

I use Complex scripts (Hebrew and Arabic) in my MS Word, and the commands
Edit>Find... and the Edit>Replace... work fine.

BUT, when I record a macro that uses these commands, it works only on the
Latin text, and ignores the Complex script fonts.

Does anybody have a solution?

Thanks,

Hi Kdarlaomer

Searching for a single Hebrew or Arabic character works fine?

I don't have experience with this, but I guess the parameter in .Find that
makes Word aware of text direction (left-to-right/RTL) is

.MatchControl = True

Does it help if you add this line in your "With Selection.Find ..."?
