File Path in footer

[trr]

I am using Word 2007 and I use Insert Quick Parts to insert my document's
filepath in a footer. My filepath does not update when I save a document as
a different name or toa different folder. I have been able to do this in
earlier versions of Word. How can I get it to automatically update?

Those earlier versions could not have been any later than Word 2000, because the
filename field doesn't update automatically from Word 2002 onward. See
