Getting the FileName

[SFlpm]

Hello, I was wondering, how do I get the actual file name of a file, I tried using
Dim ofd As New OpenFileDialog
...
If ofd.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.D ialogResult.OK then

'problem is here!
label1.text = ofd.filename
'problem is here!

End if
...

I would like it to just show the actual file that ofd opened, not the filepath, any ideas on this?

Thanks,
SFlpm

What version of VB is this? I can't even create an OpenFileDialog object, in VB6.

Just chop the front of the filepath off until you get to the filename. Ltrim() would be a way of doing this.

I think they are either running VisualBasic.NET or VisualBasic 2005.

Unless it has changed considerably since I last used it, the LTrim() function just trims off leading spaces. How would that help?
