Create, run, edit, or delete a macro

Create, run, edit, or delete a macro

To save time on tasks you do often, you can record the steps of those tasks as a macro. Then, when you want to perform one of those recorded tasks, you can activate the macro to perform the steps for you.

Newer versions Office 2011

Word

In Word 2016 for Mac, you can create a macro that has a keyboard shortcut, run a macro, and delete a macro that you no longer need.

  1. Click View > Macros > Record Macro.

    On the View tab, click Macro, and then click Record Macro to begin creating a macro.

  2. Type a name for the macro, or accept the default that Word provides.

    Enter a name for your macro in Macro name, or accept the generic name provided by Word.

  3. To use this macro in any new documents you create, verify that All Documents (Normal) is selected in the Store macro in list.

  4. Click Keyboard to assign a key combination to your macro.

    Word displays the Customize Keyboard dialog box.

  5. Type a combination of keys in the Press new keyboard shortcut box.

    Word displays the command or macro already assigned to a key combination, if any, after you press the combination.

    When you press a key combination, Word displays the command or action currently assigned to that key combination, if any.

  6. If the key combination that you chose is already assigned, delete it from the Press new keyboard shortcut box, and then choose a new key combination.

    Go on to the next step after you have found an unassigned key combination.

    Word identifies when you have pressed a key combination that is not yet assigned to a command or macro.

  7. To use this keyboard shortcut in any new documents, be sure Normal.dotm, the global template, is selected in the Save changes in list.

    Select Normal.dotm to make a macro available for use in new documents that you create.

    The list will include the document that is open in the current window, as well as the global template and Word commands.

  3. Under Macro name, select the macro that you want to delete, and then click the minus sign below the list.
