how to find missing characters in document

R

ravi

Hi,

In my document i am finding some characters appearing as
boxes even though font is Times New Roman. If we print
this document that characters are printing as blank space.
Is there anyway to find these characters through vba?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Ravi,

Usually, you can paste the character into the Find dialog (Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V).
If you use the macro recorder, the recorded code will likely have the
correct code for that character, ".Text = ChrW(####)".

In Word2000, you may have to find the code -- select the character, then
use "MsgBox AscW(Selection.Text)" -- and then insert it manually in the
..Find macro.

In case it doesn't work, post back!

Regards,
Klaus
