Put word in bracket when cursor is upon word

[anilsharaf]

Cursor is upon a word of a sentence.
and
I have this:
monotony
I want this:
(monotony)

This should work

Sub Macro1()
Dim orng As Range
    Set orng = Selection.Words(1)
    Do While Right(orng, 1) = Chr(32)
        orng.End = orng.End - 1
    Loop
    orng.InsertAfter ")"
    orng.InsertBefore "("
    Set orng = Nothing
End Sub

Note that Graham's macro works with the insertion point (cursor) in the word. It does not work when just the mouse pointer (cursor) is over the word.

I used wrong word. I should have used 'Insertion Point'. Thanks for bringing it to mind.

Thanks. It worked well.
I had lost hope when I saw the notice in the Forum that 'You can not post any thing' 'Simils are on' etc. So I was not checking the Forum post.

Dim orng As Range
    Set orng = Selection.Words(1)
    Do While Right(orng, 1) = Chr(32)
        orng.End = orng.End - 1
    Loop
    orng.InsertAfter ")"
    orng.InsertBefore "("
    Set orng = Nothing
End Sub

Thanks. It worked well for English Font. But one thing more, What if the word is in font 'Kurti Dev 010': In Hindi 'Full stop' is a letter 'n' and English Capital 'A' is a Full Stop. This macro does not take 'Full stop' in word.
I have this Hindi Word (Kurti Dev 010) with Full stop at last.

¼ is an opening bracket and ½ is a closing bracket.
