you will probably have a FileStream object somewhere. get the full name using FileStream.name, then copy from the last occurence of "/", to the last occurence of ".".

FileStream myFile = new FileStream("C:/file.txt", FileMode.Open);

string fullName = myFile.name;
int nameFrom = fullName.LastIndexOf("/"
int nameTo = fullName.LastIndexOf("."

string filename = fullName.Substring(nameFrom, nameTo-nameFrom);

- i think this should work. my apologies if you end up being a character out.

How are you accessing this file? Do you have it opened as a stream? Or are you saying "How do I find out the name of the code module that is currently executing"?

thanks for all of ur reply.
lets say i have a web sites name as

http://www.websites.com

so, when i am i

http://www.websites.com/index.aspx,

i want to know what is the file name that i am currently access to. For this example, i will expect to get a file name with index.aspx but i want only the file name excluding the extension.
thanks!

You can look at the Request object, which is part of the Page object that your code is running in (the this object).

Off the Request object, you have the FilePath property, which you can then pass to a Path object to get just the filename part:

String MyPath = this.Request.FilePath;
String Myfilename = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(MyPath);

You'll need to reference the System.IO namespace, and maybe set the proper permissions to use the Path object (give it a try first).
