Macro to convert font to Helvetica

[Douglas McKibbin]

If I record a macro to convert an entire document to Helvetica font I
cannot "de-select" the document after conversion in record mode, this
requires a mouse click away from the highlighted text which is not
recorded. Can someone suggest a macro to convert an entire document to
Helvetica font?
Thank You

Hi Douglas:

It's a single statement:

ActiveDocument.Content.Font.Name = "Helvetica"

Not an elegant or nice way of doing things though. If you tell me what you
are trying to achieve, I may be able to suggest a better method.

Cheers
