Hi Graham,

You are going to shoot me soon. The macro works great on my pc and
one of my co-worker's pc's. It doesn't work on all of them though. I
displayed all macros in my NORMAL template and it isn't there. It is
only in the Template project Ulinski. My VB Editor display is as
follows: + Normal (NORMAL)
+ TemplateProject (NewSpell)
+ TemplateProject (Rick1)
- TemplateProject (Ulinski)
- Microsoft Word Objects
ThisDocument
- Modules
AddLines
The properties windows shows Addlines Module and below that is has
(Name) Addlines. I deleted the old toolbar and added a new one with
the Addlines macro on it and still no luck with some of our pc's.

Thanks again for all your help with this!

It seems you have your button pointing to the version in your
normal.dot. You will need to reassociate the button (replace it)
with the macro now in the template.

Graham,

I am continuing to struggle with this. I tried using the new macro
on one of my coworker's pc's and it couldn't find the macro to run
it. The tool bar popped up, but the macro didn't run when I pressed
it. I noticed that the macro shows up under TemplateProject
(NewRick) under Modules NewMacros.

Help!!!!

If you have done as you describe it should work as it stands.

I restored my NORMAL.DOT template to the version prior to the
addition of the addlines macro. I then keyed the new macro and
made it available to the new template only. Should this work or
do I have to create a module?

Thanks for your patience!!

Yes it should, but there again I don't know what you have copied
to that template from normal.dot when you were messing with the
Organiser,

Thanks Graham. Idiot's guide should work well for me! One
question, When I selected macros and chose only the template I
wanted, shouldn't that display only the macros in that template
and not the normal template?

Thanks again for the help!!!

I have created a new template and added a macro to it to
unprotect the form and insert additional lines. When I open
the template, the macro shows up under the template in
question (not just on the normal template). Does anyone know
why the macro won't work or display on other pc's? I tried to
use the organizer to copy from one template to another without
much success.

Thanks for the help!
