Transfer a Microsoft Word Macro?

Would someone be able to explain how to copy and import a Microsoft Word macro from one system into another seperate computer system? I copied the macro from the office11 directory on the source system into the office11 on the destination system. However, it does not appear on the menu bar when I start Microsoft Word. Thanks in advance.

If the MS Word Macro is in menu bar, then it is available in Normal.dot.

If you do not wish to have problems the corect way is as follows:

1. Let's call the computer where you currently have the macro ORIGIN and the destination TARGET computers.

2. Create a new document on the ORIGIN computer. Save it with a name of your choice. Let's say DOCMAC.doc. With this document open, go to Tools%26gt;Macros%26gt;Macro... or just hit Alt+F8.

3. A window entitled Macros will popup on your screen.

4. Clic on Organizer...

5. You'll have the Organizer window on the screen.

6. From the scroll down menus above the CLOSE FILE buttons select Normal.dot on the RIGHT side and DOCMAC.doc on the left side menus.

7. Select the macro in the NORMAL.dot that you wish to copy. If you do not know the name, right clic the button on the toolbar which runs it. You'll see its name. After selecting the macro, in the NORMAL.dot pane, hit the COPY button in the middle to have it copied to DOCMAC.doc. You can repeat this for as many macros as you wish to carry.
