A petty problem?

Hi,

I record macros whilst writing in Word97 from time to time.
The macros are not used in every file so I don't want
to keep them all the time and attach to each file.
When I delete a macro from a certain file it dissapeares
from the list in all files.
If I record a macro whilst writing one file, I have it on the list
in all following files.

Question: How and where to keep macros to be able
to copy (attach) and use them for file when necessary only.
I need something like library of (my) macros but I don'r
really know how to do it.

Regards,
Sofia

I'd like also to ask how it happens that when I am given a Word file
with a macro, the macro is on the list and I can run it.
When I try to use my old macro which was in my old file but it isn't
in the Word now, I don't have it on the list (and I can't run it of course).

It seems that it is somehow connected with Word97 itself and not with
a file but I don't know why.

Could anyone help me?

Hi Sofia,

You may want to use the link below to also post this in one of the Word VBA/Macro discussion groups.
Some versions of Word allow macros to be in either a document or template while others save them only in a template.

Hi Bob,

Thank you very much for your reply.

Unfortunatelly the newsgroups:
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.word.vba.beginners
news://msnews.microsoft.com
are not available on the newsgroups server I use.

The following newsgroups concerning vba:
news://microsoft.public.word.vba
news://microsoft.public.word.word97vba
are available on the server but they are visited by a few people only.

I did not know that newsgroups are also available via web browser.
Especially thanks for:
http://microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/?dg=microsoft.public.word.vba.beginners
I think that it is what I need.

Regards,
Sofia
