How to add the file name and path to the header or footer in Word
Basically it is the same but you find the filename/path field in a different
place. Look on the Insert Ribbon and click on Footer (or Header). Once you have are in a Header or Footer, the Design Ribbon will appear. Select Quick Parts and look add the fields required for Filename with the path switch. Once it is inserted, you can select it and create your own Quick Part for future quick insertion. See Help on Quick Parts for more information. -- Terry Farrell - MS Word MVP "M.Siler" wrote in message ...

How to add the file name and path to the header or footer in Word
If you are interested in a template that contains a Building Block with the
filename and path for the Header and Footer gallery, here's a template I created for this: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/te...002841033.aspx It contains instructions for how to copy the Building Blocks for use in any document. Note that this is the first time I've tried something like this, providing a solution using the Community-Submitted templates, so if you do try it I'd like to know how well it worked out for you. Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup.

Hi Beth,
There's a typo in your link It should be http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/te...002891033.aspx to keep from the 'template not found' page coming up g instead of the "Filename and Path Header and Footer Building Blocks" one Bob ?:-) =============== "Beth Melton" wrote in message ...

Thanks for the correction, Bob. :-)
I posted the link a little too soon, I saw it was there but later I tried downloading it and I kept getting an error. So I removed it and uploaded it again which assigned another link. The one thing I don't like about the Community Submitted templates is you need to wait almost 48 hours before it appears. I understand why, but it would be nice to be able to test it prior to that. Now, for some reason, the Building Blocks aren't in the template so I'm trying again... It would be nice to be able to submit Building Blocks and add them to the Building Blocks category but it doesn't look like that's available yet - I'll have to ask. I have noticed a general issue with Building Blocks in general, Microsoft's and those in the template I added, since another Word session ends up being started after you download a template, if you access a gallery that contains Building Blocks which opens Building Blocks.dotx you encounter an "In Use" error. :-( (I need to report this as well.)

How to add the file name and path to the header or footer in Word
Hi Beth,
I was going to mention the 'in use' issue to you There are a couple of other oddities that can change the way things work with that template. I don't know if it's a security feature on the template site or in the downloader, that may be removing active content, but items such as the Professional Fax Cover page (the one with the macro button checkboxes) don't include the macros if you download them, so the macro buttons are sort of unusable without recreating the macros. =============== "Beth Melton" wrote in message ...

How to add the file name and path to the header or footer in Word
Unfortunately the "in use" issue also applies to Building Blocks Microsoft
created that are available for download. Previously the instructions for using Building Blocks were to restart Word to make them available since it just copied the template and placed it in the Building Blocks folder, which worked well so I'm not sure why they changed the behavior but I've asked about it. The resubmitted template is still processing so I can't check to see if it's stripping content or not just yet. But my main reason for adding them was to see how well the Community Submitted templates functionality works and I've decided it could use some improvement. ;-) Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup.
