Hi folks,
This is where I get to ask a question!

I just put a tip on fmepedia about using the Windows folder options to
enable a right-click transformation in Explorer. Basically I add the
following command to the DGN file extension...

cmd.exe /k call "C:\Program Files\FME\fme.exe" GENTRANS IGDS "%1" ACAD
FMEgentrans.dxf

It works OK, but I'd prefer the output to be the same name as the
input, just a different extension. But if I use...

....IGDS "%1" ACAD "%1".dxf

I get <filename>.dgn.dxf as the output, and I don't really want the
".dgn" part. In theory the call command should allow me to use...

....IGDS "%1" ACAD "%~pn1".dxf

to give just the path and filename. However, it doesn't appear to work
from the Windows folder options (does work entered directly into DOS).

So, my question is, does anyone know how to resolve the "%~pn1"
problem in Windows, or does anyone know a different DOS command or
function that will return the filename without an extension?

Thanks for any suggestions,

Mark
