Does a document need to find original template?

[PatrickYork]

Hi,



I have a problem with getting macros to work across the two PCs I use for editing my Word documents. I created a new Word document on PC1 based on a template which included a couple of macros. Using Dropbox, the .docx file is synchronised with PC2 but the folder that contains the original template is not synchronised. When I edit the document on PC2, the macros are not available (they do not show up in the list of macros).

Does a document need always to be able to 'see' the original template on which it is based in order to have macros available (seems the answer is 'yes')?

Is there a way to embed macros in a document so that a document no longer needs to have any link to the original template?

Any help or advice would be very much appreciated.

Kind wishes, Patrick

You can certainly save macros to macro-enabled documents, but it would be wiser to distribute the document along with its macro.
