Copy macros from Normal.dot to another template for distribution

We need to distribute the spell checking macro and toolbar to users in other
areas of the company. The macro shows up under all active Templates and the
Normal.dot template, but when I try to use the organizer to copy it from
Normal.dot to another template, the macro doesn't show up. Any idea what I
am doing wrong?

Thanks!

The organiser only shows macro project items - if you have not made any
changes yours will be in the NewMacros project (along with any others you
have created). To separate it out you need to create a new project and move
the macro to it using the macro editor, or if you have the template open for
editing, you could move or copy it to the new template project directly.

The organizer shows modules, not macros. Macros are stored or organized in
modules. You can use the vba editor (Alt-F11) to copy individual macros. See
http://addbalance.com/word/movetotemplate.htm for step-by-step instructions
on moving / sharing / copying / backing-up customizations including
AutoText, AutoCorrect, keyboard assignments, toolbars, macros, etc.

Thanks Graham. I'm still a little fuzzy on what makes a template "Global",
other than locating it in the startup directory. You guys are the best!!

The Normal template is always global; custom templates
must be in the startup folder to be global. See
http://word.mvps.org/macwordnew/globaltemplatecontent.htm.

Hm, I just noticed that the link in my previous message was to a
MacWord page. Although the principle is the same for both flavors of
Word, you may prefer to read about WinWord. See:

A slight correction: any template can be loaded as global by being added
through the Tools | Templates and Add-ins dialog. But only templates in
Word's Startup folder will be loaded at startup as global templates.

A global template, other than normal.dot, is loaded through (1) being in
Word's Startup folder, or (2) being added using the Templates and Add-Ins
dialog, or (3) being loaded using code (but those loaded using (2) or (3)
won't automatically be loaded next time you start Word) . See
http://addbalance.com/word/movetotemplate.htm for step-by-step instructions
on moving / sharing / copying / backing-up customizations including
AutoText, AutoCorrect, keyboard assignments, toolbars, macros, etc.
