Where is Insert 'Filename and Path', found in old Office version?

[June Zakimi]

It used to be available in the Insert drop down menu in the Office 2003
version of Word. Where can I find it now? or is it now available anymore.
If not available, how best do you put a "physical" name on the document so
that you know what you named it--as it would print out on the bottom of any
so-named document that you created.

 

[Graham Mayor]

If you updated Word 2003 to 2007, the autotext entries should have been
retained and can be found under insert > quick parts.

If not you can insert a filename \p field and save that as a new building
block,
or
you can open the footer and type CTRL+F9 and in between the brackets created
type Filename \p then F9 to update
or
Add a macro to insert the filename and path in the current footer to the QAT
(Quick Access Toolbar) e.g.

Sub InsertFileNameAndPath()
Dim fFname As String
With ActiveDocument
If Len(.Path) = 0 Then
.Save
End If
fFname = .FullName
ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.SeekView = wdSeekCurrentPageFooter
Selection.EndKey unit:=wdStory
Selection.TypeText fFname
ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.SeekView = wdSeekMainDocument
End With
End Sub
