I appreciate your response. I actually found a way to accurately place a circle shape over specific text based on an Excel sheet, but it's limited to specific characters, a set circle size, and some adjustments by Word VBA code. However, I want the macro to calculate the position and size of the circle shape automatically. The only part I'm struggling with is the x-axis position, which isn't accurate.
I don't want to rely on Word VBA adjustments of the position since such action shouls be customized each time. My original macro is designed to add a circle shape over selected text. The issue is that the character, font size, and line spacing of the selected text can vary greatly, making accurate calculation crucial.
By the way, I did consider your suggestion of putting a circle shape in a text box and then adding the text box over the selected text. However, I think it would be much more complicated to calculate, so I'm exploring other options.
Thank you again for your suggestion, and I appreciate your input.
