Extracting file name

[Robert Bravery]

Hi all,

Using regex, how can I extract just the file name of a given path and
filename
as in
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\Visual Studio
2005\Projects\importXL\importXL\opex06det.xls
where all I want is opex06det.xls

Thanks
Robert

Why not just use:

string fn = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(examplePathFromAbove);
