Stringregexp with a dot and backslash?

[bleh 1]

Hello

I have a stringregexp problem.

$String = "C:dirfile.txt"

Now i want to get the filename ("file") but i'm failing to get it... especially with changing numbers of subdirectories.

bleh,

Try this:

$sString = "C:\dir\file.txt"
$sFilenameExExt = StringRegExpReplace($sString, "^.*\\|\..*$", "")
MsgBox(0, "Filename", $sFilenameExExt)

Melba,

$sString = "C:\dir\my.file.v3.3.12.0.txt"
$sFilenameExExt = StringRegExpReplace($sString, "^.*\\|\.[^.]*?$", "")
MsgBox(0, "Filename", $sFilenameExExt)
