I accidently deleted the filename and path under the Auto text. How do I get
this entered back into my system to print the filename and path and not the
words filename and path?
 
View | Header and Footer. In the header, press Ctrl+F9. This inserts a pair
of field delimiters (the things that look like braces but can't be typed
from the keyboard) with the insertion point between them. Type

FILENAME \p

Select the resulting field and press Alt+F3. This will open the Create
AutoText dialog. Type "Filename and path" (or any other name you want to use
for this AutoText entry) and click OK. Since you created this entry in the
Header style, it will be available from the menu on the Header and Footer
toolbar. You can now delete the field you inserted in the header; it's done
its job.
