how do you export or save to a file to be moved to another computer just one macro? 

The way I export or share a single macro:

First I delete everything other macro, room, device, and timer from my AHX file. So only the macro I want to export or share is left. Then I save that macro (with its room and all its devices and or timers) with a new name.

That macro can then be saved to another PC and opened. It will open the AHP software when [double] clicked.

In the top left of AHP select "File". In the drop down select "Merge". In the box that opens select your normal AHX file and select it for the "Merger". Save under a NEW name.
