Question Extract from string

[pjfatboy]

Having a hard time figuring this out. How would I extract "Image1" from a string like...

C:\Program Files\My App\Images\Image1.jpg

If the string will always be an address like the example you gave then you just need to get the indexes of the common factor locations, Namely the last index of "\" and the last index of "." and use that index data to extract your substring.

String.LastIndexOf Method (Char) (System)

If you are always working with a path and want the filename without the extension you can use System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension as documented on MSDN here.

It will always be a path. Thanks guys for the response. Home Grown Coder that is exactly what I was looking for.
