Create a File object from the string, then use its getName() method. (Plus, this works for Linux too!).
Well... I would do it the way that JamesCherrill said,
but you could also do a search on the string from the end (looking for "\")
and do a substring() to get the file name.
Indeed you could. But rather than a hard-coded "\" you should use the delimiter (\ or /) appropriate for the OS the application is running on. There's a method that gives you that, but it's late and I can't remember exactly what it is. Goodnight.
