Piece of cake!

Open Word (you guessed that bit )
Tools - Customise - Commands
Scroll down the left box to Macros and click on that.

Scroll down the right box till you find your new macro. It will have a long name - something like Normal.NewMacros.ProperDate

Drag and drop it onto the toolbar where you want it.
The whole pesky long name Normal.NewMacros.ProperDate will appear on the toolbar.
Right-click (or the "other click" if your mouse is left-handed) on the long name. The third line down in the window is headed "Name:"
Edit it to what you want. Mine says Date, but I'm not blessed with a vivid imagination.

Alternatively, assign an icon to it - use "Change Button Image" a bit further down that same "Name" window. Then (and only then) clear out the Name: field to blank.
If you blank the name before you assign a macro, and then hit a wrong key, the whole thing gets messy. Don't ask how I know.
