Well, technically in the example you used, "record" (noun) and "record" (verb) are"Homographs". They are words that share the same spelling but have different meanings. Since "record" (noun) and "record" (verb) also have different pronunciations, they are also "Heteronyms".
But to answer your question, two words that are spelled the same but have different pronunciations are called Heteronyms.

Typing letter pronunciations?
When typing letter pronunciations, unless you wish to (*shudder*) search/Google the individual letters, you use a combination of the ALT and NUM-PAD KEYS. Here's the steps: 1. Turn on NUM LOCK, if it isn't on already. 2. Press and HOLD the ALT KEY. 3. Press the sequences for different things; for example, ALT + (14) = ♫ ALT + (15) = ☼ ALT + (130) = é 4. Once you have entered the sequence, RELEASE the ALT key. Pow. You now know how to do letter pronunciations. (Very helpful for French. ;)) Hope this helped. :)
