Deleting macros that have been removed from the system Greg 22.07.2006 02:14:01 Hi - I had installed, then uninstalled, a program (Adobe PhotoDeluxe) that was conflicting with Word 2003. Word kept asking if I wanted to save a template before closing, even though nothing was changed. After this program was removed (it had a file with a .dot extension that I think was the cause), I noticed along the top toolbar in Word that there are about ten instances of a macro that point to nowhere. They are shaded on the menu and not chooseable to delete. My question is how can I delete these Macros from the toolbar? Reinstallation of Word didn't help. Thanks very much.
