Default Transferring MACROs from WORD 2000 to WORD 2007

Hi Macropod,

Thank you for your prompt response.

Could you please point out to a reference that specifies the procedure for
transferring MACROs?

In WORD 2000, I can get the MACROs code from TOOLS -- MACROS -- EDIT and
then copy the code for all MACROs.

I can get the shortcuts applicable to these MACROs from TOOLS Ã* CUSTOMIZE
-- KEYBOARD.

What do I do next?

Is there a method to transfer the entire set up of WORD (MACROs, CUSTOMIZE,
OPTIONS, shortcuts) from WORD 2000 to WORD 2007 so that one can use the
familiar environment?

Thank you for your help.

Hi ATK31,

For the most part, your macros should run OK. However any code using:
.. calls to menus/toolbars
.. Application.Filesearch
.. Sendkeys
is liable to fail. Application.Filesearch isn't supported by Office 2007 and Sendkeys isn't supported by Vista. There may be other
'gotchas' too, but I haven't encountered them - yet.

I have a very large set of MACROs written in WORD 2000.

Is is possible to migrate these MACROs to WORD 2007?

Thank you for your help.
