Can a second file like Normal.dot be created

[Greg Purvis]

Hi.

I've got a macro that is quite large and I want to access it in its own .dot
file.

Can I create something like a Normal2.dot?

What is the terminology used; I have a hard time guessing the names for
things when I'm trying to get information with keywords.

In my text file the macro is nearly eighty pages long, so I'm hoping there's
a way to create a second file, and if there is, how is that accessed when
one wishes to edit it?

Thanks

The term you are looking for is a global template. This normally resides in
the Word startup folder. Call it anything.dot but normal.dot and move your
macro to it. To access it for editing, open the template as if it was a
document and edit it directly.
