Default Attaching a template to a document - when opened on other computer

Ok, I have created a macro that removes the header when printing a document.
Now this document will be opened by users on several different computers in a
network (and possibly also computers outside the network).

How can I attach this macro to the document, so that wherever it is opened
the option to print without headers is available? Can I add an alternative
print button in the body or header of the document that users simply can
click?

The problem is that most users will open the document from a database in IE
and won't have the Word toolbars at hand (or they will first have to save the
document to their computer and open it). What I would like then is an easily
available option for users to print without the header (using the macro),
without having to save the document on their computer first.

I have read the excellent guide on the Word MVP site about distributing
macros to other users. But 1) this would mean I have add the template with
the macro on every computer first and 2) is the macro available if only
opening the document within IE from the online database?

Thanks!
