>How do I capture the parts of a filename? For example, if the name of a file is image0001.jpg, I want to define lcprefix as "image0001" and lcSuffix as "jpg". I can't find this anywhere in the VFP6 online documentation, which is frustratingly difficult to use.
Hi Rixon,
As you've been told in VFP 5.0 you can use JustStem(), JustPath, ForceExt(), etc. in Foxtools. These functions, as also has been mentioned, have been made part of the language in 6.0. I just wanted to add a word of warning, however, if you're using 5.0 and use Foxtools. Like the ADIR() function, the Foxtools functions have problems with long file names with multiple periods in 5.0. Both ADIR() and the functions work correctly, however, in 6.0.
