You should be able to store it in the attached template (the one used for
creating the document normally), in the document itself, or in normal.dot.
In which of these are you attempting to store it?

when trying to store a macro in documents based on a new template I get a
msg
"the macro could not be created". I'm using Word 2000 on XP Home. works
fine if i store in All Documents (normal.dot) but i should be able to
store
it locally in docs based on the new template so i can use the file on
different computers right? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
