Use the GetFileFromPath() function.
Try:
<cfoutput>#GetFileFromPath("C:\Winnt\System32\driver\lmhosts.sam")#</cfoutpu
t>
It will result in lmhosts.sam being displayed.

Subject: Strip directory path to get just file name
Hi All,
If my value in a string is
c:\webshare\wwwroot\site\filename.cfm
, how I just strip it down so I can dump filename.cfm
into a variable?
I am thinking that I should access the above string
from the right side, looping through each character
until I get to the first "\". However, I don't know
where to start with the code (and, I left both cfwacks
books at home :(
Any help is very much appreciated!
Thanks!
Andy
