In previous versions of Microsoft Office you could have the name of the
current file and it's full path appear at the top of the screen.  Now, with
Office 2007 all I can get is the file name.  How do I get it to show the full
path?

I've used Excel 95, 97, 2000, XP and 2003. I don't recall ever having seen
the full path displayed in Excel's title bar, just the File name. If I
recall, whether that filename includes the extention is based on your
Windows Explorer Settings (Tools>FolderOptions>View:Display known
extensions), but the DisplayFullPath settings in WindowsExplorer have no
similar effect in Excel.

But maybe that's just me.

HTH,

There are some add-ins that will do this, ASAP Utilities is one
Nothing built in like you can do with windows explorer
