Hi Suzanne,
My diagnosis, which may be off, is that the macros are currently stored in
an Add-In. That is the only way I know to have operational macros that don't
show up in the vb editor or the organizer. So the template needs to be moved
from the Startup folder on the old computer to the new computer.

Make sure you are saving the file to the folder specified for "User
templates" on the File Locations tab of Tools | Options.

I have a computer running Word 2000. I have a new computer running Word
2003. I have a couple of Word macros that I need to move to the new
computer. I have already looked through old messages and have looked at
http://addbalance.com/word/movetotemplate.htm and
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/FilesToBackup.htm and
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...latesStore.htm but still
cannot figure out how to move the macros to my new computer. When I open
Word 2000, my computer does not behave the way that it should according
to
the addbalance site. Using the Organizer button doesn't show my macros;
using the VBA Editor doesnt' show any macros either, yet they are there
and
run when I use them.
I have tried to simply copy the .dot file over to the new computer but I
put
it in the subdirectory that Word looks in for templates but it does not
see
it there.
Any help?
