I've created a Macro in Word 2007 and assigned a button to it. The macro
works fine until I close Word and reopen. After doing that, the button is
still visible but the macro behind it is no longer in the application. It's
not listed in the macro list either. Where did it go?
 
By default it would have been stored in the normal template. For some reason
that template has not been saved - probably through interaction with a
poorly written add-in. Had this not been Word 2007, I would have said the
Acrobat 7 add-in, but that is not compatible with 2007..

The obvious answer to that is to identify the errant add-in and update or
remove it to allow Word to save the norma template as required.

Word 2007 does not use normal.dot, but normal.dotm which only Word can
create. You can open this file in Word, make changes and save it, which
should do the trick. In ordser to save it it would need something adding
that Word sees as a change. Adding a character to the text space and
deleting it should suffice.
