How to remove 1 segment from the "macro_path(0)"

[ps]

Hi

How do i remove the last part of a string if i dont no its lenght?

STRING mpt = macro_path(0) 

This prints D:\lokalt\1 folder\more projektes

If I want to remove all after the last \ so I get  D:\lokalt\1 folder

STRING mpt = macro_path(0)
STRING LIST tk = tokens($mpt, '/')
$mpt = REPLACE($mpt, "/" + $tk[SIZE($tk)-1], "")

MESSAGE INFO $mpt

Take @rafael.sansao macro and edit / to \ and it works..

STRING mpt = macro_path(0)
STRING LIST tk = tokens($mpt, '\')
$mpt = REPLACE($mpt, "\" + $tk[SIZE($tk)-1], "")

MESSAGE INFO $mpt

[rafael.sansao]

This depends on the language of the computer... / OR \

Hi PS,

The function dirname does this:

STRING $Test1 = macro_path(0)
$Test1 = dirname($Test1)

That should sort it for you.

Hope that helps
