I seem to remember somebody posted a parser component that stripped the path from a file string to leave only the filename.
For example it converted the string:
C:\Audio\SM\MyWave.wav
into
MyWave.wav
Was it my imagination?

great example; it fails on filenames without extension, though.
another - maybe easier way - is to use a String Find (reverse-search the rightmost "\" char) and a String Split.

Yes, and some more. Try this one: OSM.
I included only "_" and "-" as valid characters though, I think there are some more that Windows accepts. HTH
