Can't Share Normal Template With Others

Using Word X for Mac (OS X), I've made a new normal (global) template
with two macros. Here at work all our Macs (all OS X) are joined by a
server. Each Mac needs to use this new normal template as their
(permanent) normal template, but the macros won't copy. I've read the
Help files and found the description of the problem ("Macros, AutoText
entries, and custom toolbar, menu, and shortcut key settings that I've
used are missing") but just don't understand what to do. The Organizer
doesn't list the macros, by the way.
Please walk me through this! Thanks, Suzanne
