There was a macro that would transpose characters, i.e., "cahract.

I used to have a macro that would transpose characters automatically. For
instance, cahracter to character. Any ideas?
 
You'll need to provide a little more information than that. You could use
Find and Replace to swap alternate characters thoughout your document, but
presumably that's not quite what you have in mind.
 
It sounds like you used to have AutoCorrect>Replace text as you type checked
and now you don't.

cahracter to character is an out of the box autocorrect entry.
 
I remember seeing a WordBasic macro for this years ago; I guess it's the
sort of thing a lot of users find useful, though I would be inclined to use
AutoCorrect entries for specific transpositions that I'm prone to. But
here's a VBA macro posted by Larry ([email protected]) two years ago:

Sub TransposeCharacters()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Selection.Characters(1).Cut
Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1
Selection.Paste
End Sub
