Dear All,

I was wondering is there only %1 available when changing Folder Options/File
Types?

I'm noticing the %1 passed the whole filename including folder, I think this
is causing a program with the DOS program I'm using and I was wondering if
there is anyway of just passing the filename?

Hope someone can help..

Regards
Paul.

So, a bit of research turned up %~nx1 which works....

got it from.
