Find and replace text using macro

I work in an organisation with 47 member states and two official languages, English and French. I would like to be able to produce a simple macro that would run through a Corel Draw graphic (e.g. a pie-chart) and change the names of all the countries from English to French.

I tried recording a macro, but the result was a series of messages in the macro telling me that “Recording of this command is not supported: TextEdit”.

Does anyone know if it’s possible to do what I want?

    Corbeau,

    I'm guessing the key is to have the macro search for a specific country name
    and replace with a specific name. Once it is created, it would probably be
    easy to have other languages supported as well. While that sounds all good,
    I wouldn't have the faintest idea how to actually create it.

    The good news is that I'm sure Jeff and his MacroMonster.com team will see
    this and I bet one of them could whip it up really quickly. So I'll leave it
    to them to answer with more details.
