Default Copy Macros from Word 2003 - Word 2007

I have several people that have macros that were run as a button item from their Word 2003 program. Now they
want to take those macros and have them moved over to Word 2007 and used as a button again. Yes, they are
the users of the application.

I have found the Macros, but do not understand how to move them over into Word 2007 and save them in
the normal.dot file. When I kept looking, there was onlt a normal.dotx file. Tried to rename to normal.dot, but
that was not the answer.

For one of the macros, I exported them to an output file save as *.bas file. When I went into Word 2007,


thought I should havce been able to import the file. When I attempted to do that, there were two subroutines,
which was two macros she had on Word 2003. Once I did that it allowd me to run one of them but not both of
them. The second one would not execute.

I am trying to find a cut to the chase step by step or link for how to get these macros over into Word 2007
and then assign them as buttons. I would appreciate all the help I can get in refernce to this matter.

Thanx in advance.

Jerry
