Putting a macro on other pc's
The spell checking macro I got from the mvps website is working perfectly on
my pc. I'm having trouble moving it to other pcs. What is the best way to add it to the template we base our new forms on? Thanks. Ken K. -- akkrug |

I put the template with the macro in one of our user's startup directories
and the toolbar with the macro button on it is not showing up when she starts Word. I was able to create a new toolbar for her and add the button to run the macro. Is there any way to keep the toolbar display on when the form is saved to the startup directory so we don't have to add a toolbar on each pc we put this on? Thanks again for all the help. The macro works very well!! akkrug "Jay Freedman" wrote: akkrug wrote: The spell checking macro I got from the mvps website is working perfectly on my pc. I'm having trouble moving it to other pcs.

Hi Ken,
Did you save the toolbar into the global template? Use the Organizer to copy it from its original location. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org On Thu, 22 Sep 2005 06:30:11 -0700, akkrug wrote: I put the template with the macro in one of our user's startup directories and the toolbar with the macro button on it is not showing up when she starts Word.

Hi Jay,
The toolbar is in my Normal.dot file and also the template that I set up based on the Normal.dot file. I put the new template based on my Normal template in each of our users startup folders. The step I was missing was copying the toolbar from my custom toolbar to thieir Global Template. As always, Thanks for the help!!!! -- akkrug "Jay Freedman" wrote: Hi Ken, Did you save the toolbar into the global template?
