Default How to display the filename in spreadsheet

From Bob Phillips

File path, file and worksheet name:
=CELL("filename",A1)

File path only:
=LEFT(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("[",CELL("filename",A1),1)-1)

File name only:
=MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("[",CELL("filename",A1),1)+1,FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1),1)-FIND("[",CELL("filename",A1),1)-1)

The sheet name:
=MID(CELL("Filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("Filename",A1))+1,255

Using the information for displaying a TAB-name,

is there any way to display the FILENAME ONLY?

Thanks
