Extract file name from full path?

[Bill]

Is there a method that will take a full path and filename as a
parameter and return just the filename? I am currently using the
following code but it is extremely slow for files on a DVD.

for (int I = 0; I < openVobDialog.FileNames.Length; I++)
{
FileInfo vobInfo = new FileInfo(openVobDialog.FileNames[i]);
vobListBox.Items.Add(vobInfo.Name);
}

See the static "GetFileName" method of the Path class...

Hi there... you can use the System.IO.Path.GetFileName() method. For
example:

String myfullpath = @"c:\Folder1\SubFolder\MyFile.txt";
MessageBox.Show(System.IO.Path.GetFileName(myfullp ath)); // Shows MyFile.txt
