Select Insert tab Quick Parts Field. In the Field dialog box, select
FileName in the Categories list. Turn on the €œAdd path to filename€� check box
(by default €�Preserve formatting during updates is turned on €“ I would turn
it off). Click OK.

You can save the field as a new Quick Part: Select the field you just
inserted, press Alt+F3 and type a name for the new quick part.

Note that you can easily type the field instead of selecting it from a list:

1. Press Ctrl+F9 to insert a set of field braces.

2. Between the braces, type:
FileName \p

3. Press F9 to update the field (if this does not toggle field codes, press
Alt+F9).

If you leave out €�\p€�, the field will show the file name without the path.
