Default Can't Edit Old Macros

I'm having trouble editing old macros that I transferred from Word 2003 to Word 2013. I transferred the old macros by renaming and then moving the old Normal.dot file to the Startup folder in Word 2013.

When I try to access one of those older macros, (which are now available by clicking the ADD IN section of the desktop) I receive a message: "Project Locked" and "Project Unviewable." The same thing happens if I try to "step in" to the macro using the macro icon under the View section: acces to the macro code is denied.

I would also like to add new macros to this section.

How do I edit these older macros and add new ones? I hope I don't have to go back to Word 2003.

Thank you.
