Hi,

I have developed one macro which i want to distribute so that when ever user
open a publisher application the macro should be there. No need to insert
each time. Same like Normat.dot template for Microsoft Word.

Actully I am trying to find the template for Publisher but not able to find
which one.
If not possible then is there any other way to achieve this by Add-Ins or
digitally signed macros??

Thanks

Annoyingly, there is no such object. There is a normal.pub, but the only
things that Publisher reads from it are the text styles. Objects,
macros, etc. are all ignored.

That depends what you want the macro to do. I have a tutorial at
http://ed.mvps.org/Static.aspx?=Publisher/tutaddin on creating a
Publisher add-in, if you'd like to have a read.
