Are there any macros for Word for Windows publicly available?
I haven't seen any being posted, or on simtel.
The following is a very simple autosave macro to use instead of 
the silly thing built into W4W that bugs you to save at random 
intervals.  If you've never played with the macro feature:

	run W4W
	pull down the macro menu
	click on edit (in the macro menu)
	enter savenow for the macro name
	cut and paste the following macro into the macro editor
	save it and the global command changes

In order to use it, you'll either need to assign it to a menu,
assign it to a key, or have it run when you start W4W (more about 
that after the macro).

Sub MAIN 
If IsDirty() Then 
	FileSave 
	End If 
now$ = Time$() 
ap$ = Right$(now$, 2) 
hour =  Val(Left$(now$, 2)) 
min =  Val(Mid$(now$, 4, 2)) 
min = min + 4 
If min > 59 Then 
	min = min - 60 
	hour = hour + 1 
	End If 
If ap$ = "PM"  And hour <> 12 Then 
	hour = hour + 12 
	End If 
If hour = 24 Then 
	hour = 0 
	End If 
If min =  0 Then 
	nextime$ = Right$(Str$(hour), 2) + ":00" 
ElseIf min < 10 Then 
	nextime$ = Right$(Str$(hour), 2) + ":0" + Right$(Str$(min), 1) 
Else 
	nextime$ = Right$(Str$(hour), 2) + ":" + Right$(Str$(min), 2) 
	End If 
OnTime nextime$, "savenow" 
End Sub

If you'd like to have this run when you start W4W, create the macro
AutoExec and paste the following into it:

Sub MAIN 
FileNew 
If MsgBox("enable autosave?", 36) Then 
	Print "autosave enabled" 
	MacroRun "savenow" 
	End If 
End Sub

I expect to make this a little more sophisticated, and post a new version in 
about a week, but I wanted to see if anyone else was writing macros.
