Send toolbar to others; associate macros with its buttons

[wal]

Word 2003 sp2

I've created a couple of macros that other people in the office would
find useful. It is easy enough to get the macros to them (Export the
module and save it to a common folder; the other people can then
Import the module).

But how can I do the following?

(1) Send/transfer to other people's computers the toolbar I use for
these macros. The toolbar has two buttons, one for each of two
macros.

(2) Associate the buttons with the respective macros on the other
computers (if this doesn't happen automatically).

Thanks.

Create a template (.dot) that contains both the macros and the toolbar. You
can then distribute that template to other users. If the users store the
template in the Word Startup folder, the toolbar and macros will be available
to all documents.
