How to share macros in Word 2003

[Dana Reece]

Let me start off by saying I do not write VBA code. I can make some simple
macros using the Record Macros feature in Word. I need to know how I can
share my macros with others. I have Word 2003 and I am on a network.

I have tried various things I have found on the internet, including
directions on how to share macros in Word 2002 (which seemed to work for some
but not all and did not copy any shortcut keys for the ones it did work for).
I even created a template and using the macros Organizer transferred
NewMacros from my Normal.dot to this template, then attached it as an email
to someone, had her save the template, go to the Organizer and then try to
copy from the template to her Normal.dot, but she was unable to copy from the
template.

We have contacted our IT department but have had no response from them other
than they would get back to us (it has been more than 2 weeks). I don't know
if that is because they don't know how and can't find out how or we are just
low on their priority list.

I need more or less step-by-step directions on how this is done. As I said,
I do not write code and if you tell me to copy my code into a template (which
someone did), I will have no idea how to do that. Help me! Give me
directions that anyone without IT experience can follow please! Thank you so
much!
