This works just fine. However, I was wondering if there's any way to hide the file extension? I need the extension viewable in my folders, so I have it turned on. But I don't need it to appear in my worksheet.

Any help would be appreciated!

Hi,

try this version of worksheet formula :

=LEFT(TEXT(CELL("filename") ; ) ; MID(".";TEXT(CELL("filename") ; ) ; 1)-1)&RIGHT(TEXT(CELL("filename") ; ) ; LEN(TEXT(CELL("filename") ; ) )-MID(".";TEXT(CELL("filename") ; ) ; 1 )-3)

This locates dot from filename and then takes left part and right part from
filename - string leaving dot and 3 next characters away.

I was forced to add some extra spaces to above formula, because they
was counted as smileys at this page . . . and I can't correct or
citate those.
