Show the full name ( path and workbook name ) in the menu bar in Microsoft Excel

Tip submitted by Kieran from Western Australia.

  1. Open the web toolbar.
  2. While holding down CTRL and ALT, right-click on the Address box, and drag up to the menu bar just after the Help menu.

You now have a copy of the path and the active workbook name available for all files as they are opened. Screenshot // Show the full name ( path and workbook name ) in the menu bar in Microsoft Excel
