How do I send Unicode text from MATLAB into a Word document via the ActiveX interface?

I'm using MATLAB to programmatically create a Microsoft Word document on Windows. In general this solution works fine, but it is having trouble with non-ASCII text. For example, take this code:
% Define a string to send with a non-ASCII character.
umbrella = char(9730);
toSend = ['Have you seen my ' umbrella '?'];
disp(toSend)
% Open a new Word document.
wordApplication = actxserver('Word.Application');
wordApplication.Visible = 1;
wordApplication.Documents.Add;
% Send the text.
selection = wordApplication.Selection;
selection.TypeText(toSend)
The Command Window displays the umbrella character correctly, but the character in the Word document is the "question mark in a box" missing character symbol. I can cut-and-paste the character from the Command Window into Word, so that character is indeed available in that font.
The TypeText method must be assuming ASCII. There are resources on how to set Unicode flags for similar operations from other languages, but I don't know how to translate them into the syntax I have available in MATLAB.

You may use selection.InsertSymbol(character_code) to insert a symbol to the MS Word

You need to tell InsertSymbol that you want Unicode. That's a third parameter. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30132932/how-do-i-send-unicode-text-from-matlab-into-a-word-document-via-the-activex-inte/30133199#30133199
