[2008] Remove Chars from filenames

[Worf]

Hi again.

 

I have another problem that i need to solve to get my program to work correctly.

 

I need a routine or a couple of lines that will remove the following characters from filenames. These are Spaces, "." and "_" the one a found does not seem to work. :(

 

 

Many Thanks for you help

Is this what you are looking for?

 

       Dim FullPath As String = "C:\My_Dir\Just_A.File_Name.txt"
       Dim FileNameOnly As String = IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(FullPath)
       FileNameOnly = Replace(FileNameOnly, "_", "")
       FileNameOnly = Replace(FileNameOnly, ".", "")
       FullPath = IO.Path.Combine(IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(FullPath), _
                   FileNameOnly & IO.Path.GetExtension(FullPath))
       Debug.Print(FullPath)

Hi JumpyNET

 

Thank you for your reply.

 

This looks like just what i need, if this works i can delete the routine that removes the extention as this routine will make things alot easier for me.

Could you please give an example string that you want to process. Or maybe a little of you current code.
