ActiveDocument.Path will return the current document's folder name. To go up one level, simply strip off the last folder name from that. For example:
Code:
Sub Demo()
Dim StrOldPath As String, StrNewPath As String
StrOldPath = ActiveDocument.Path
StrNewPath = Left(StrOldPath, InStrRev(StrOldPath, "\"))
StrOldPath = StrOldPath & "\"
MsgBox StrOldPath & vbCr & StrNewPath
End Sub
