Default File Lister- (Code help) Pull File Name without Extension into Col

I'm trying to pull in *.dwg files into a Column
So I'll have a list of all my drawing files. I'm wondering if I can change
the code so that it only pulls in the file name without the extension. Then
that would save me some extra code and making more macros to remove the file
extension from column with an additional macro.

Sub Load_Files()
'dimension variables
Dim objFSO As FileSystemObject, objFolder As Folder
Dim objFile As File, strSourceFolder As String, x As Long, i As Long
Dim wbNew As Workbook, wsNew As Worksheet

ToggleStuff False 'turn of screenupdating

Set objFSO = New FileSystemObject 'set a new object in memory
strSourceFolder = BrowseForFolder 'call up the browse for folder routine
If strSourceFolder = "" Then Exit Sub

'create a new workbook -Deleted this function-BDC -Workbooks.Add-

Set wbNew = ActiveWorkbook
Set wsNew = wbNew.Sheets(2) 'set the worksheet which is worksheet tab 2
wsNew.Activate
'format a header
With wsNew.Range("A1:F1")
.Value = Array("File", "Size", "Modified Date", "Last Accessed",
"Created Date", "Full Path", "Size")
.Interior.ColorIndex = 34
.Font.Bold = True
.Font.Size = 12
End With

With Application.FileSearch
.LookIn = strSourceFolder 'look in the folder browsed to
.FileType = msoFileTypeAllFiles 'get all files
.SearchSubFolders = False 'don't search sub directories
.Filename = "*.dwg" 'This selects what kind of File Type -We're
using AutoCad Here
.Execute 'run the search

For x = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count 'for each file found, by the count
(or index)
i = x 'make the variable i = x
If x 60000 Then 'if there happens to be more than multipls of
60,000 files, then add a new sheet
i = x - 60000 'set i to the right number for row placement
below
Set wsNew = wbNew.Sheets.Add(After:=Sheets(wsNew.Index))
With wsNew.Range("A1:F1")
.Value = Array("File", "Parent Folder", "Full Path",
"Modified Date", _
"Last Accessed", "Size")
.Interior.ColorIndex = 7
.Font.Bold = True
.Font.Size = 12
End With

End If
On Error GoTo Skip 'in the event of a permissions error

Set objFile = objFSO.GetFile(.FoundFiles(x)) 'set the object to
get it's properties
With wsNew.Cells(1, 1) 'populate the next row with the variable
data
.Offset(i, 0) = objFile.Name
.Offset(i, 1) = FORMAT(objFile.Size, "0,000") & " KB"
.Offset(i, 2) = objFile.DateLastModified
.Offset(i, 3) = objFile.DateLastAccessed
.Offset(i, 4) = objFile.DateCreated
.Offset(i, 5) = objFile.Path

End With
' Next objFile
Skip:
'this is in case a Permission denied error comes up or an
unforeseen error
'Do nothing, just go to next file
Next x
wsNew.Columns("A:F").AutoFit

End With

'clear the variables
Set objFolder = Nothing
Set objFile = Nothing
Set objFSO = Nothing
Set wsNew = Nothing
Set wbNew = Nothing

ToggleStuff True 'turn events back on
