When I have a file loaded into Word 2007, I see the filename in the bar
at the top of the screen.

Can anyone tell me how to show the full path of the file, as well as the
name of the file?

With thanks.
 
You can add the Document Location item to the Quick Access Toolbar. You
will find it in the Commands Not in Ribbon (or All Commands) group.

Include the line
ActiveWindow.Caption = ActiveDocument.FullName
in an autoopen macro in the normal template - seehttp://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm

OK, thanks but this is a bit too advanced for me.

Press ALT+F8. Do you have a macro called AutoOpen? If you have not created
one then you won't have so use the link I posted earlier
http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm to assist you to add the
following macro. This isn't difficult!

Sub AutoOpen()
ActiveWindow.Caption = ActiveDocument.FullName
End Sub
