Question

Directory.GetFiles(targetDirectory);

Using the above code we get the names(i.e full path) of all the files in the directory. but i need to get only the name of the file and not the path. So how can I get the name of the files alone excluding the path? Or do I need to do the string operations in removing the unwanted part?

EDIT:

TreeNode mNode = new TreeNode(ofd.FileName, 2, 2);

Here ofd is a OpenFileDialog and ofd.FileName is giving the the filename along with it’s Path but I need the file name alone.

Answer 1

You could use:

Path.GetFileName(fullPath);

or in your example:

TreeNode mNode = new TreeNode(Path.GetFileName(ofd.FileName), 2, 2);
