MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / November 2007Transferring Macros
I have created a simple Macro in Word to record my keystrokes in order to automate a task of course. However, what i need to do next is see if these Macros can be transferred to other PCs in my work environment so that I don't have to recreate the same Macros on each PC in our office. Where does word save these Macros? and Can I just transfer them via E-Mail or a shared drive source and simply assign the appropriate keystroke/toolbar to the macro as normal?

Correct. > However, i believe this then involves > having to modify a template via VBS/VBA and I am not familiar enough with > VBS > code to do that... :-( Did you just use the macro recorder to create your macros? If so, just repeat the steps, but specify a particular template when asked where to save the macro.
