[RESOLVED] Drag & Drop Get File Properties

[Cyb3rH4Xter]

I have finally got the drag and drop to work on my form, so the user can drop files on it. I have used the msdn example so i can get the whole filename (path + filename). But how do i get only the filename? (lol.zip) And maybe the path where it is?

This is my current code:

            string[] s = (string[])e.Data.GetData(DataFormats.FileDrop, false);
            int i;
            for (i = 0; i < s.Length; i++)

so if i write MessageBox.Show(s[i]) it shows the path + filename.

why are you posting c# questions in the vb.net forum?
do you want the answer in vb?

Dim theFileName As String = IO.Path.GetFileName("your-file-path-here")
Dim theFolderName As String = IO.Path.GetDirectoryName("your-file-path-here")

try this:

Dim s() As Object = e.Data.GetData(DataFormats.FileDrop, False)
Dim fi As New IO.FileInfo(s(0))
MsgBox("Path = " & IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(fi.FullName) & Environment.NewLine & "Filename = " & IO.Path.GetFileName(fi.FullName))
