Stefan,
There was a normal.dotm, a normal(2).dotm, and a normal.dotm.bak file but all were empty. I had at one time converted all my macros to a word doc and I was able to copy and paste those in but I hadn't updated that doc in a while. That won't happen again.
I have purchased a backup from seagate. Will that back up my macros or should I stick with my low tech copy and paste backup? Hopefully this will never happen again but I would like to be prepared this time.
Thanks!
