How to find file-path of open workbook?

[Larryq22]

Sometimes when I return to an Excel workbook that's been open for a while, I
need to check it's path. I've been doing a file...save as and looking there,
but I'm thinking there must be an easier way. Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks,
Larry

Do you know VBA? If so, in the immediate window type

?ActiveWorkbook.Path

and press Enter.

the formula:
=CELL("filename",A1)
will return the path and filename once he file has been saved.

 

[David Biddulph]

=CELL("filename",A1)

One more:

File|Properties|General Tab

(sometimes long paths are truncated, though)

Is your OS Vista? If so to copy the full path to the clipboard. Shift-Right
Click on a file or folder and choose Copy as Path.

You can add the "Address" box to your menu bar or tool bar.
This will display the full path of any saved file.
I would advise using the Menu bar, since there's usually more room there,
and paths can get to be rather long.

Right click on the tool bar and choose "Customize".
Under the "Commands" tab, scroll down in the left window and click on "Web".

Then, from the right window, click and drag the "Address" box to your Menu
bar.
While it's *still* selected on the Menu bar, hover the cursor over the right
border until it changes to a double headed arrow.
Drag the border to the right to enlarge the box so as to see the entire path
of any deeply buried WB you might open.

Then just close the "Customize" window.
