Insert the FILENAME field; you can use the Field dialog box for this
purpose. To display the dialog box: - Click Insert | Field (Word 2003). - Click Insert tab | Quick Parts | Field (Word 2007). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "energysaver" wrote in message ...

Hi,
To display the full path of the file and not just the file name, you will need to add the \p switch to the FILENAME field. You can create the complete field code through the UI or in the following way. 1. Type FILENAME \p 2. Select what you just typed. 3. Press Ctrl+F9 to add the special curly brackets. 4. Press F9 to update the field and display the result. -- Hope this helps, Pesach Shelnitz My Web site: http://makeofficework.com "Stefan Blom" wrote: Insert the FILENAME field; you can use the Field dialog box for this purpose.

Indeed, sometimes it is easier to work with the field code(s) directly.
