The point is that with the approach I suggested (and demonstrated in the attachment) is that the template is used as an add-in. It is not intended to be used as a document. By using the add-in approach, the macros are available to all your documents.

The main idea is that the users have a template with the macrobuttons already in place, so that they can keep re-using that same form. Once in place all that I would need to do in case of changes to the texts hidden behind the macro's is adjust those in the template that the users keep calling on. The plan is to have the users not use those macro's on their own documents, but just keep using the ones in that single document. Sorry if I didn't explain this thoroughly.
