Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to know what was the filename of an
image that was imported into Word (Office XP).

We have a document made by someone who imported some tif files. We want
to know their filesnames so that we process the images further. The
images were imported as files (not as links to files).

thanks,
Sam.

Unfortunately, if there's no link, then there's no file path info.

Too bad. I already had this hunch (tried all the relevant menus to see
if they would divulge the filename) but wanted to ask others just to be
thorough.

Anyhooow, thanks for confirming.

Try the script editor - ALT+SHIFT+F11. This will give you the filename,
though maybe not the path, and more information about the structure of the
document than you really need .

I do see this information in the "imagedata src" info (the filename is
truncated in my case because it contains punctuation--an apostrophe).

Very interesting. I think I will try this on the document.

Thanks a ton,
Sam.
