e.g., \"C:\\folder\\folder\\folder\\file.txt\" = \"file\" (or even \"file.txt\" to get me sta

Thanks to kaveman for the help. Here is the full code I used to remove both the path and the extension (it is not full proof, does not take into consideration files that contain more than 2 decimals eg. *.tar.gz)

sFullPath = "C:\dir\dir\dir\file.txt"   
sFullFilename = Right(sFullPath, Len(sFullPath) - InStrRev(sFullPath, "\"))
sFilename = Left(sFullFilename, (InStr(sFullFilename, ".") - 1))

sFilename = "file"
