A macro is a series of Microsoft Office Word commands and instructions that you group together as a single command to accomplish a task automatically. If you delete a macro, it will be removed from the template and will not be available in any document.

Before deleting Macro make sure your macro is not currently running. If it is, suspend the macro.Deleting a macro does not remove the changes it has previously applied.

Now to delete a single macro follow this steps:-

On the Developer tab, in the Code group, click Macros.
In the Macro name list, select the name of the macro that you want to delete.
If the macro doesn't appear in the list, select a different document or template in the Macros in list.
Click Delete.

Delete macro projects

A macro project is a collection of components, including macros, forms, code, and class modules.
On the Developer tab, in the Code group, click Macros.
Click Organizer.
On the Macro Project Items tab, click the macro project that you want to delete from either list, and then click Delete.
Word displays the macro projects that are used in the active document in the list on the left. Word displays the macro projects that are in the Normal document template in the list on the right.

Some advanced macros (e.g., interactive macros) require knowledge of the Visual Basic programming language. Programming knowledge is also required to edit macros. While programming is beyond the scope of this document, for those already familiar with the Visual Basic language, Word's Visual Basic editor is easily accessed.
