so essentially you have two folderitems, and you can dump them both into two strings:

file:///D:/NotBackedUp/My%20Projects/RBStuff/directoryList/ dcs_toc.html

(we'll call this string1)

and

file:///D:/NotBackedUp/My%20Projects/RBStuff

(we'll call this string2)

Can you just do the following:

Relativestring = ReplaceAll( string1, string2, "" )

if your example case is as complex as things get, that should work fine.

I can't seem to get my head around this problem and perhaps a different set of eyes can help...

I'm getting a folderitem and assigning the URLPath of that folderitem to a string variable.

itemPath = source.URLPath (where source is a folderitem and itemPath is a string)

itemPath ends up looking like this:
file:///D:/NotBackedUp/My%20Projects/RBStuff/directoryList/ dcs_toc.html

and I really only want this part of it:
/directoryList/dcs_toc.html
and the size of it might vary based on the filename at the end.

of course the front end:
file:///D:/NotBackedUp/My%20Projects/RBStuff
could ALSO vary from one system to the next in both content and length (obviously)

I guess I'm looking for a way to write out a RELATIVE URLPath from a given location.

Am I missing something obvious??
