I've set up my copy of Word so that it's just how I want it, (macros,
toolbar
buttons including some I've created myself, keyboard shortcuts). How do I
copy the setup to another PC running Word. Should I just copy the
normal.dot
over, or is there more to it than that?

I've read about template bloat, and how to clear it
(http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MacrosVBA/TemplateBloat.htm). The article
mentions
compiling the VBA. How do I do this? I thought that VBA was an interpreted
language so didn't need to be compile.
