Here's a template you can download that contains Building Blocks for the
Filename and Path along with instructions for copying them so they'll be
available to all documents:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/templates/TC300002951033.aspx?pid=CT101446261033

Note: To avoid errors with this delivery method, exit Word prior to
downloading the template. If you don't, you could encounter an "in use"
error if you've already accessed a Building Blocks gallery in Word.

Also, this is a temporary solution. Building Blocks for the filename and
path is slated for publishing in the Building Blocks gallery, instead of the
Template gallery, which will make the delivery seamless - you won't need to
exit Word first and then copy the Building Blocks.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email can not be acknowledged.
