removing the file extention
Is there an easy way of removing the file extention from the file name?

removing the file extention
If the filename also has its path with it...
FileNameOnly = Mid(Left(PathAndFilename, InStrRev(PathAndFilename, _ ".") - 1), InStrRev(PathAndFilename, "\") + 1) If the filename is by itself (that is, without its path)... FileNameOnly = Left(FilenameAndExtension, _ InStrRev(PathAndFilename, ".") - 1) -- Rick (MVP - Excel) "Fan924" wrote in message ...

Your statement may not work for the OP... file extensions are not always only three characters long. Some examples from the Office 12 (Office 2007) directory... ExpenseReport.xltx, excel.exe.manifest, SOLVER.XLAM, Building Blocks.dotx, NewFileItems.vsdir, etc. -- Rick (MVP - Excel) "Scoops" wrote in message ...
