Hi, Scott
Just a reminder that for the past two years (or maybe one year, I forget)
the AppleScript-Users list does not munge « and » nor any of the other
non-ASCII characters (including all those used in AppleScript) made by
option key on an English language keyboard, and then some. From the message
you're responding to, it's clear that that does not include the full Unicode
range however!

I think maybe you might also have added that Rosyna will not be able to do
this with the 'do Visual Basic' type of script she submitted, will she? Nor
with a VBA macro. As far as I recall, the VBA compiler in Word Mac also
doesn't do Unicode. However, it should work fine with the new PowerPoint
2004 AppleScript (which she wasn't using). That would require PowerPoint
2004, of course - perhaps she's using X, and would then be stuck, I think?
