I think you mean the path and name of the current file, so here's how to do that:

In versions of Word prior to Word 2007:

1. Click where you want the path inserted. Usually, this is in the page footer.

2. Click the Insert->Field menu item.

3. In the list box, find and select FileName.

4. Check the Add Path to Filename checkbox.

5. Click OK.

In Word 2007:

1. Click where you want the path inserted. Usually, this is in the page footer.

2. Click the Insert tab on the Ribbon.

3. In the Text group, click Quick Parts.

4. Click Field.

5. Continue as in Step 3, above.

Hope that helps.

You're doing this bass ackwards.

Go to the Word document file and double-click on it. It will open in Word and you won't even need a path because Word will remember it next time in the File Tab > "Recent Documents".

You can also go to Tools > Options > Paths (or similar, depending on your version), and tell Word to always look in that specific folder.

Insert-Autotext-Header/Footer-File name and path

You have to have saved the file at least once, or you'll get "Document1" (or whatever the default is for that document) as the name and path..

You can even drag and drop an object in Word Doc too.
