Speaking of regular expressions, can anyone recommend good training materials
or websites for these?
I'm starting to use them more and more as they are wicked fast compared to
the built in jscript String object methods.

Filesystemobject also has methods for extension etc.

Subject: [Script] Trimming strings
Hello,
Is there are way to trim an string? For instance, I'm getting
a file name. I
would like to compare this name with other file names, but without the
padding and extension (basically to check if there are sequences of
different name in the same folder). The problem is that when
you get the
file name of a file through FileSystemObject, you get the padding and
extensions as well.
Thanks for any info
Bernard
