I have heard that MS Word allows recording a series of actions, so that you can get the whole work done on a single-click. I have been trying to search for that feature, but couldn’t find any! Can anybody tell me, the steps for creating a macro in Word?

4. With Button: Click on new macro, and then click on Add, and then click on Modify to select an icon for the Macro button. Click on OK twice, and then record your steps.
