 Get Short File Name from Long File Name?

Hello,

Does anyone have any idea how I might convert a LONG file name (ie
"C:\TIR Tool\currentfiles\tir.txt") to the short file name?

I am using an email package with cc:Mail and cc:Mail doesn't support
long file names, so I can't add any attachments with long file names.

Thanks
Marc

Please email and post reply.
