Question

I have a string in C#

String file="\\mserver-80\docs\somedoc.doc"

Now How do I get fileInfo from the above sting.
What I mean is,
I want to declare something like

FileInfo fInfo = new FileInfo(file);
fileExtn = fInfo.Extension;

Answer 1

In C# the string should be

String file="\\\\mserver-80\\docs\\somedoc.doc";

You can also escacpe the string using the @ character, which is a better alternative:

String file=@"\\mserver-80\docs\somedoc.doc";

other than that the code should work.
