how to get a last name of the path

There are a number of ways: You could use string methods, or FileInfo methods, depending on what "2222" is:

string path = @"d:\myfolder\myTest\testfolder\111111\2222";
FileInfo fi = new FileInfo(path);
Console.WriteLine(fi.Name);
string last = path.Substring(path.LastIndexOf('\\') + 1);
Console.WriteLine(last);

In fact, both methods produce the same result, and neither of them require the file of even the folder structure / disk to exist. However, the FileInfo method will require the path to be a valid file specification - it will throw an exception if you give it ":D\myfolder\myTest\testfolder\111111\2222" for example.

hi,
Using String.Substring() you can do it easily,

string path = @"d:\myfolder\myTest\testfolder\111111\2222";
          path = path.Substring(path.LastIndexOf(@"\") + 1);

Get files from directory (with specified extension):

You can specify search pattern. You can use wildcard specifiers in the search pattern, e.g. „*.bmp“ to select files with the extension or „a*“ to select files beginning with letter „a“.


string[] filePaths = Directory.GetFiles(@"c:\MyDir\", "*.bmp");
// returns:
// "c:\MyDir\my-car.BMP"
