How do I identify and delete macros

[Chris at FCC]

Before I got Windows XP, I used a macro I found through this site to set up a
couple of documents to print as a booklet. With the new Office software, I
don't need that macro anymore. Some of the documents I use are based on older
documents containing the macro (in both Word and Publisher), and I get a
dialog box asking me to enable or disable the macros. I would like to take
out the macros all together, but I don't know how. Also, for all I know
(which isn't much at all about programming), there may be macros built in to
the program that I don't want to delete. How do I find and delete the macros
that I don't need? Thanks!

1) This isn't a "site" this is Usenet

It sure ain't Usenet by any standard definition. You access through NNTP,
the OP accesses through a website.

2) Publisher doesn't use macros - do you mean an add-in?

Publisher most certainly does have macro functionality, although the duplex
printing functionality is normally provided by an add-in available at
http://www.publishermvps.com.

Tools > Macros > Visual Basic Editor provides access to Publisher's macro
tools. If there's any code in the publication, it can be found and deleted
in there.

I think Margolotta would like to mess up PCs so people won't like them
and will all buy macs instead. Then she won't feel so left out in her
perfect mac world where nobody needs to write and share about problems and
using them because they are perfect and never have problems. (so why don't
the users just go and USE them?)

There should be a disclaimer somewhere about not taking her answers
seriously. People who don't know might believe her.

Actually, I wouldn't know a website from usenet if they came up and bit me,
but I do know that I've gotten a lot of help from this "whatever it is." My
first computer was a Mac and I used one at work for many years and only
reluctantly switched to a PC. Now, I figure a computer's a computer, still at
the mercy of software, glitches and all.

It seems that every ng has at least one jerk capable of high-jacking the
entire ng with their bullshit.
