Default Quick Parts entries in .docm template lost

I have a document with a .docm template file attached. (I can't use a .docx template file because I need a template file that includes macros which can only be saved in a .docm file. Also, I don't want to save the Quick Parts in the Normal.dot or the default Building Blocks file, because I am using this in connection with Dropbox and want to be able to open this document with the attached template anywhere.)

If I add a Quick Part entry in my document and specify it to be saved in the .docm template, it works while the document is open. When I save the file, a message comes up asking if I want to save the building block entries, to which I say Yes. However, when I close and reopen the document, the Quick Part entries are obliterated, gone, not there.

If I attach a .docx template and do the same thing, the Quick Part entries stick.

Any way to make the Quick Parts save in the .docm template?
Thanks.
