Tim,
In VB add a reference to the Microsoft Scripting Runtime library
(windows\system\scrrun.dll) to your project and then use the FileSystemObject
from that library. There is a method called GetBaseName() that will do the
trick.
In MB use the PathToTableName$() function (it should work with regular
file names, not just tables).
Gary.
