Hi,

My attachment name is : TimeSheet URD V1.0.doc

i want to split it as "TimeSheet URD V1.0" and "doc".

I used str[] strWords=str.Split('.'). This code gave me only "TimeSheet URD V1".

How can i achieve to get the full file name without extension?

Please help me to resolve this issue.

Thanks.

1.

C#

String returnValue = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(path);

2.

C#

if (this.openFileDialog1.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK) 
{
  String returnValue = openFileDialog1.SafeFileName;
}

3.

use lastindexof(".") ,not indexof (".")

C#

strFilePaht.Substring(path.LastIndexOf("\\") + 1, path.Length - 1 - path.LastIndexOf("\\"));
strFilePaht.Substring(path.LastIndexOf("."), path.Length - path.LastIndexOf("."));

Solution 2

Hi, Use this:

C#

string s = "TimeSheet URD V1.0.doc";
int i = s.LastIndexOf('.');
string lhs = i < 0 ? s : s.Substring(0, i),
    rhs = i < 0 ? "" : s.Substring(i + 1);

Got this source from:

and it works!
