About macros in South Asian documents
The feature or some of the options described in this Help topic are only available if support for the appropriate South Asian language is enabled through Microsoft Office Language Settings.
When working with macros in a South Asian language, be aware of the following:
-
Macro names can contain South Asian characters if you are using a South Asian operating system such as Thai Windows 2000 or later, or if your default system locale is set to the South Asian language in Windows Control Panel.
- You can use macros to record and restore global features
— for example, sequence checking of South Asian characters. - You can assign shortcut keys to South Asian characters.
- When running macros that format text, you need to be aware of the current keyboard language. Many commands will apply only to South Asian or to Western text, depending on the keyboard language that is enabled when the command is run.
- Your macro source code can only use Thai or Vietnamese characters.
