» 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

Followed the tip, but found that I had to LEFT (rather than RIGHT) click on the address bar. Otherwise worked fine.

I could not get it to work in Excel 97.With right-click and draging after Help Menu,it displays a symbol (drag and copy ?) but the path does nost show aside Help menu.

Similar situation with left-click.
