1. A kilobyte is 1024 bytes, not 1000, so you need to divide my 1024, not just remove the last 3 characters. lngBytes = 57344 lngKBytes = lngBytes / 1024 Obviously if the number of bytes isn't a multiple of 1024 you'll get a decimal value back, and so will need to round to however many decimal places you need. 2. Use the left function:- strFileName = "image.jpg" strFileNamePart = left(strFileName, len(strFileName) - 4) Dan

I can get the file size of an image in bites but want it in kb so I need to get rid of the last 3 numbers 2. I can get the file name as eg "image.jpg" but don't want the ".jpg" to be written into the database. I assume both answers will be very similar.
