Each time I record a macro, the next next one overrides previous

[Guest]

I am trying record macros in a template but each time I record a macro, it
overrides the previous one I just recorded. How can I stop this and save
each individual macro?

Are you giving the macros distinct names?

Yes I am so that is why I am confused. Doed it matter that I choose for them
ato apply to my custom template as opposed to the normal template?

Macros saved in a custom template will only be available to documents
created from that template. Macros saved in normal.dot will be available to
all documents. Provided you give the macro a unique name (or accept the
default) it will be appended to rather than overwrite existing macros. See

Thanks, Graham, I'll check it out.
