Path where Workbook is saved
 

What is the code that will detect the patch of where the
Active Workbook is saved and put that in cell A1? For
instance the Activate workbook is called Stats Manager and
is saved in C:\Data\Stats Manager.Xls. When the code is
run I need for it to put the value "C:\Data\Stats
Manager.Xls" in cell A1.


Thanx

Todd

Path where Workbook is saved
 

Todd,

For the path without the file name, use

Range("A1").Value = ActiveWorkbook.Path

For the full file name, including path and file name, use

Range("A1").Value = ActiveWorkbook.FullName

Range("a1") = ThisWorkbook.Path

or

Range("a1") = ActiveWorkbook.Pat

Path where Workbook is saved
 

=LEFT(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1)))
produces
C:\Data\[Stats Manager.Xls]

to remove the brackets

=substitute(Substitute(formula,"]",""),"[","")

=SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(LEFT(CELL("filename",A1),FI ND("]",CELL("filename",A1)
)),"]",""),"[","")
