I'm not understanding what difficulty you are having. Looking at the eileen's lounge thread, it appears that you are having difficulty with the tedious part of reading and typing in the characters and codes. I cannot tell if it is simply "it is too long and tedious and I get bored doing it" or if there is some other difficulty in reading the UNICODE tables at wikipedia. If you are having trouble reading wikipedia's unicode tables, there are others out there.but in fact I can't store those special characters in an array as those special characters are much
Your sample list in the other forum did not include any of the Arabic characters, but did include the Latin characters. Is the problem larger than originally indicated, in that you don't want to limit this to just the Arabic characters, but the entire Unicode list where accent and other special marks are part of the character? Other than being longer and more tedious, I don't know that this problem is more difficult.
One thing I noticed in the spreadsheet on the other forum is that you used the CHAR() function -- which is limited to Ascii character codes. In 2013, you have access to the built in UNICHAR() (and UNICODE()) functions. https://support.office.com/en-us/art...90033e188#bm21 Paste your code list into Excel like you started, then use the UNICODE() function instead of the CODE() function to get the list of decimal Unicode() numbers for each character. That will even give you the beginnings of a lookup table that you might be able to use.
Does any of that help? What are you stuck on?
