Whenever possible, create macros in Modules. Doing so will add to the integrity and stability of your program. The exception to this rule is event procedures, which are added directly to Reflection objects.
To create a macro in the Visual Basic Editor
In Reflection, open a session document.
The steps depend on your user interface mode.
