Hello. I'm having some trouble with this string, well path. When the user of this program that I'm creating has entered a path to a picture, using an openfiledialog I need to extract only the filename from that string. Ex: say openfiledialog1.filename = "C:\folder\anotherfolder\somefile.txt" then I need the "somefile.txt" from that string including the .txt especially. I get the feeling I missing out on something easy here. Help plz thanks in advance Live the life as you know it / Wille

Well, .NET 2.0 SP1 and on has a OpenFileDialog.SafeFileName(). If that's not an option, the linked page suggests using Path.GetFileName(): SafeFileName = Path.GetFileName(ofd.FileName.ToString())
