This is what I eventually got working. I suppose I could have combined
the three cfsets into one, but this was a bit easier to work with.
<!--- get the full directory path, but chop off the first three
characters "c:\" --->
<cfset dir = RemoveChars(GetDirectoryFromPath(GetTemplatePath()), 1, 3)>
<!--- remove the last string character --->
<cfset dir = Left(dir, Len(dir)-1)>
<!--- get the last list element --->
<cfset dir = listgetat(dir,Listlen(dir,"\"),"\")>
<!--- print the value --->
<cfoutput>#dir#</cfoutput>
Ex: starting with the raw path
"c:\directory1\directory2\directory3\filename.cfm" I get "directory3"
(the last directory name before the file name) which is what I needed.
Thanks to all who replied.
