Word 2007

I would like to add a digital signature to a code module. When I got to
Tools Digital Signature Choose, I don't have any certificates to select.
I do have a certificate that would be appropriate for this function. Does
it need to be in a specific certificate store?

Thanks for any help that you can offer!

I don't know whether this is the way it's supposed to be, but the
certificates that appear in that dialog for me (mostly my SelfCerts)
are in the Personal certificate store.

One place to ask, if you can, is the source of your certificate; each
supplier seems to have a slightly different installation routine.

The other place you could ask is in the newsgroup
microsoft.public.windows.vista.security.

You need a verified digital certificate for that, if the digital signature are not verified by the Microsoft then it is not taken as the trusted one, and it will be regarded as the self assign signatures, first look at the priorities then go for the solutions.
