Word 2004 Filenames as autotext

E

edvolchok

I frequently place file names in footers using AutoText. Suddenly
Word
is adding "FILENAME" before my file name. There are also a grayed-out
box before and after the text. So "file.doc" is now "FILENANE
file.doc."
How do I get Word to just add the file name without "FILENAME" and
these boxes?

I've been using Word since it was first introduced. Sometimes I think
that this program has just become far too cumbersome.

Thanks for your help.
