Default Need simple instructions on printing pathname.............ts

I'm NOT a skilled Excel user so other posts here on same subject aren't
detailed enough to help me. I run Excel 2002 , NOT system 7

I want to auto enter my workbook's complete pathname into a cell.


Thanks much, ted

My first pass at your code didn't work so I need to return and work on
details a bit more.
I do not have ANY skills at creating program code to do such tasks so am a
little slow.
Thanks for your help
