Board index » Word » How do I display the full path in the top left corner of Word?

Word105
When you are working in Word, is it possible to display the full path of the

document including it's location, in the upper left hand corner of the title

bar. Usually, it only displays the name of the document.



Thanks


-

To show the path in the Word 2003 (or earlier) window title bar, click

on Tools | Macro | Macros, add the following line to your AutoOpen macro:



ActiveWindow.Caption = ActiveDocument.FullName



To show the path in the Word 2003 (or earlier) toolbar area, click on

Tools | Customize | Commands | Categories: Web | Commands: Address.

Drag the Address command to your toolbar area. Click on Close. If you

are prompted to save changes to your Normal.dot global template when you

exit Word, say yes.

You can do that, but it won't show the path in the *Word* title bar - for

that you need a Word macro.
