Delete text according to the language? (Word 2007)

[mocha99]

Hi all

I deal with bilingual docs. Each doc contains text written in language A
and language B. When I am done with reviewing the doc I need to remove
all the text written in language B.

Can I use a script to select all the text written in a specific language
and delete it? Where can I find a sample script?


Thank you!

A macro isn't necessary. Open the Replace dialog and click the More button. Put
the cursor in the Find What box; then click the Format button at the bottom,
choose Language, and choose the name of language B. When you click OK in the
language dialog, the name of the language will appear below the Find What box.
Leave both the Find What and Replace With boxes empty. Click the Replace All
button.

If you want a macro anyway, record the above procedure.
