Get only the filename from a path

[markusss]

Ok heres my question:

Is there a way to get only the filename in a path ?

So, lets say my path is: "C:\somefolder\somefile.txt"

And i want autoit to return: "somefile.txt"

I looked at the several string**** functions, but didn't find anything that worked :"> .

I thought StringInStr would work so i get the position where the filename starts and then use one of the trim commands. But for the StringInStr i need some kind of a placeholder, one for "*" (undefined amount of characters) and one for the end of the string.

Any solutions for this?? Would greatly appreciate it!

$FilePath = "C:\somefolder\somefile.txt"
$File = StringTrimLeft($FilePath,StringInStr($FilePath,"\",0,-1))
