Extract file name

[Alan T]

I got a string. eg.

C:\Temp\Documents\MyDoc.doc

How do I get the name of the document only?
ie. MyDoc.doc

Try this:

using System.IO;

FileInfo fileInfo = new FileInfo(fileName);
string nameWithoutPath=fileInfo.Name.

Jianwei,

That's a bit much, actually. I would recommend using the static
GetFileName method on the Path class in the System.IO namespace.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, it works.

After I got the name, how do I get rid of the extension ?

Eg.
MyDoc.doc to MyDoc

Alan,

You can pass the file name to the static GetFileNameWithoutExtension
method on the Path class.

Hope this helps.
