Moving macros from Word 2003 to Word 2007
I use Word 2003 on my desktop, but my employer has installed Word 2007 on
our office machines. Can I move the macros I've constructed from one program to the other? I have read Graham Mayor's "Idiots' Guide to Installing Macros", but am not clear that a Word 2003 macro will work when installed in Word 2007. Thanks in advance for help. Dan S |

Moving macros from Word 2003 to Word 2007
They can certainly be moved, but without knowing what is in the macros it is
difficult to say whether they will work or not. Most macros 2003 macros should work in 2007, but some, especially those that use autotext will need some refining. There are other functions too that have been added and removed in Word 2007, so it's a question of suck it and see - and if you have problems that you can't resolve ask them in the vba forum. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Daniel Schaffer wrote: I use Word 2003 on my desktop, but my employer has installed Word 2007 on our office machines.
