VBA module in Word Normal Template not saved

kaidoloor Macros cannot be saved in a .dotx file.  While youi might have a Normal.dotx file on your one drive the Normal template from which blank documents are created in Word is a file with the name of Normal.dotm and by default, it is saved in the User Templates folder, the default location for which is

C:\Users\[User Name]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates

In place of [User Name] substitute the name with which you log onto the computer, which will appear under

C:\Users

The normal template should NEVER be a shared template.

Currently, any save to the Normal template will shift the identity of the template to a backup file. Subsequent changes made in the template are saved to the backup.
