transfer to new computer

[Steve Frye]

I copied my normal template to a new computer but the macros in it won't
work now unless I re-associate them by re-making new buttons.

But I recall someone had a little vba probram that if you run it, it will do
all the reassociations automatically. Anyone know about this?

Thank you, Jonathan.
The second article describes what I want to do.

However, a long time ago someone gave me a little macro to run that would
reassign the buttons on the toolbar to their associated macros automatically
when the association is broken by copying buttons and macros separately to
someplace. I was hoping to find that again. But it's no biggie. The method
in the MVP article does exactly the same thing (just one at a time). It'll
do just fine.

Thanks again.
