Hey Sarah,
You could probably insert the file using the insert>file command. Or
what is probably more intended is to use the option on the Tools menu called
Templates and Addins. In Word XP that's the option right below the Macro
submenu. Here you can choose a template to apply.
Another option is you might be able to go into the Macro dialog and
under the Manage option I think you can move a macro to the normal.dot
glabal template.
Let me know if any of this helps. Unfortunately I don't currently know
where my Normal.dot file resides, but I can keep looking if you want.
Cheers!
Jake
