How do I get toolbars and macros that I have created in previous versions of
Word to import into a Word 2007 template?

How about opening the old version and then saving it as a new 2007 template?

Thanks for the suggestion.

Let me make sure I understand: open the .dot template in Word 07 and then
save as a .dotm file.

Yes?

If it is a one time move that doesn't need automation, then you can manually
use the Word Organizer.
Go to Word menu Tools/Templates and Add-Ins.../
Within the dialog, click on the Organizer button.
Using that interface, open the old template on one side and the new template
on the other. Select items to copy across. Note the tabs for macros,
toolbars, etc.
