Only if you don't have file extensions displayed on your machine. And this
is no guarantee that the extension will not be displayed on another machine
on which they are not hidden.

Alternately speaking is there a way to only show the first 6 characters of
the filename using a macro or something. The way the files are I could get
away with doing it this way and accomplish the same thing.

If you want the filename in the document then insert it with one of the
following macros
Sub InsertfNameAndPath()
Dim pPathname As String
With ActiveDocument
If Not .Saved Then
.Save
End If
pPathname = Left$(.FullName, (Len(.FullName) - 4))
End With
Selection.TypeText pPathname
End Sub
Sub InsertFnameOnly()
Dim pPathname As String
With ActiveDocument
If Not .Saved Then
.Save
End If
pPathname = Left$(.Name, (Len(.Name) - 4))
End With
Selection.TypeText pPathname
End Sub
