Copy open MS-WORD document name and location as text
How can I copy the name and location of my open MS-WORD document as text? I
can see the detail in Properties, but that cannot be copied to clipboard. Can this be done from inside Word? The only (not very easy) way I've found is to go to recent documents and get it there. (I keep track of my work with different documents in an 'activities' document) |

Insert a filename field -- { Filename \p } -- then copy the result.

Actually, you *can* copy this from the Properties dialog. Select the file
path (it will scroll automatically as you drag past the end of what you can see) and press Ctrl+C to copy. -- Suzanne S.

There are a number of cases where no mouse right click is possible - I'll try Ctrl+C in future. I'm highly encouraged to take note of other annoyances for which there may be useful tricks. Thank you! |

Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V are Windows-wide shortcuts that work in many applications.
