I create the macro I need and save it to the toolbar. It saves as text and I
would like to replace this text with a button - like those already existing
on the toolbar.

Open the Tools > Customize dialog -- while this dialog is open, the
toolbar buttons are in a "design mode". Right-click on your button,
and change it from “Text only” to “Default Style”. Then you can select
“Edit button Image”, or “Change button image”, or “Paste button
image”.

In order to paste a button image, you have to copy one first. You can
copy an image from the document, or from another button; or from a
graphic in a graphics package. For much more detail on this, see the
article
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/CustomButtonImages.htm.

When you've finished, close the Customize dialog. When you close Word,
if you're asked whether to save changes to Normal.dot, say yes.
