Hi ,  Isit possible to enlarge the customize window under tool menu so when
I want to add a macro from the menu I can see which one to pick from . With
long project file name we can't see nothing on the right Thanks

Alas, no. Some people put each macro into its own project. Others shorten
the name of the larger container to a single letter. A few write custom
dialogs that display the entire name.

Looking through my list of commands, it's positively useless to show
TemplateProject.NewMacros. before the name of each macro. That's ALL that
can be seen here, making them indistinguishable. Whoever set this dialog up
for Microsoft must never have actually used it.

Without writing your own custom dialog, you're stuck rearranging the
furniture before you can actually access the macros in the Tools -
Customize - Commands/Macros dialog. At the very least, it would have been
useful to present this the same way they do for the Customize Keyboard
dialog.

dealing with that problem but I have to say I am ust a learner here
