I have a question about being able to use a macro which is located in another
Template.

(Chess players use text files called PGN files to store and retrieve chess
games and chess problems. You can read/understand “text file” every place I
write “PGN file.”)

I’ve been:
(1) opening a PGN file using Word (1st Word File);
(2) opening a new Word file based on my template (2nd Word file);
(3) Cutting and pasting the PGN information from the 1st file into the 2nd;
(4) running my macro which is located in my template;
(5) the macro opens a new document based on my template (a 3rd Word file)
and transforms the PGN information in the active document (2nd Word file)
into this newly opened document (3rd Word file).

I could save time if I could open a text file in Word using my template. But
I don’t see any option for doing that. Or I could save time if I could use my
macro (which is located in my new template) from any other Word file.

The only solution which I can come up with is that I could copy my macro
from my template into the Normal template. That would cutout steps 2 & 3 (as
listed above).

Is there any other way of running a macro which is located in another
template? Or am I better off simply copying it into the Normal template?
