I am trying to use Microsoft Office 2007 by winging it. My employer provided
me with a new computer but no books for any programs.

I was used to my prior Office which I could go into insert grab the dropdown
Menu and pick "Insert Path & Filename."

Does anyone know how I can quickly do this in MS2007? I can't figure it out.

Thanks.

Thanks for the site. I believe the MS Office I was previously using was 97,
if you can believe that! I don't seem to find what I am looking for there.
But I will keep trying.

I skipped over Word 97 so I don't know how different from 2003 it may have
been. Did you try the Help file in Word? Always a good place to start.

There is not a shortcut unless you create one to insert a {filename \p}
field.
or you can create an autotext entry and add it to building blocks,
normal.dot -
http://www.gmayor.com/Macrobutton.htm shows the method albeit for a
different purpose.
or you can create a macro to insert it at the cursor eg

Sub InsertFileNameAndPath()
Dim fFname As String
With ActiveDocument
If Len(.Path) = 0 Then
.Save
End If
fFname = .FullName
End With
Selection.TypeText fFname
End Sub

Word 2007 may be different, but Word 2003 and earlier allow you to assign
keyboard shortcuts to AutoText entries directly, through Tools | Customize |
Keyboard.

You can still do that in Word 2007. Office button - Word Options -
Customize - Customize (Keyboard) - set Category to AutoText, etc.
