(OP)
I am looking for some information on how to manipulate file names in VB. I need to strip extraneous information off of a file name?
Convert a file named 4445555_27_Folder_FileName.tiff into 4445555_27_FileName.tiff (stripping the folder section out).
Convert a file named 4445555_27_Folder_FileName.tiff into 4445555_27_FileName.tiff (stripping the folder section out).





RE: VB Script Help
For manipulating path names you may want to look at Scripting.FileSystemObject.
You may also want to look at the Split and Instr functions.
RE: VB Script Help
Function GetFileTitle(fname As String) As String
Dim fso As New FileSystemObject
GetFileTitle = fso.GetFileName(fname)
End Function
You have to have a project reference to Microsoft Scripting Runtime
And there are many other useful things like getting the folder name and much more.
