field code to return the filename without the extension

[Guest]

I need to return to the document the filename but without the dot and extension

There is no field code in Word that will do this if you have file extensions
displayed in Windows.

But you can do it with a simple macro. Use one or other of the following
depending on whether you want the file path also.

Sub InsertfNameAndPath()
Dim pPathname As String
With ActiveDocument
If Not .Saved Then
.Save
End If
pPathname = Left$(.FullName, (Len(.FullName) - 4))
End With
Selection.TypeText pPathname
End Sub

Sub InsertFnameOnly()
Dim pPathname As String
With ActiveDocument
If Not .Saved Then
.Save
End If
pPathname = Left$(.Name, (Len(.Name) - 4))
End With
Selection.TypeText pPathname
End Sub
