Moving a macro to another computer

S

saidanddone

We have a macro that we run. I would like to be able to copy that macro to
another PC without having to recreate the macro. Is this possible? If it is
possible, where would I locate the macro that I want to copy? I am running
Office 2003 Professional on the 1st machine. I would be copying the macro to
be used to a Office 2000 SBE machine, Is this even possible and if it is
where would I copy it to?

Thank You in Advance

Theres probably a really smart way to do it, but for the non-intelligent what
I do is just open the module... press Ctrl + A to select all the data, copy
it and then paste it in a word or text document and e-mail it to myself...
then just pick it up on the next computer. Not sure if this would work for
you.

Relatively easy to do once you have figured out where your macro is located.

It could be in a Personal.xls workbook

It could be in an add-in workbook or any workbook.

How do you run the macro?

Do you have a button with the macro assigned to it or a shortcut key?

Is it viewable in Tools>Macro>Macros?

Once you find it post back. It may as simple as creating a copy of the workbook
in which the macro resides and moving that copy to the other computer.

Note: there may be some changes you have to make to run a 2003 macro on 2000
