String Spliting [message #49362] Wed, 19 July 2006 07:49

I am having a problem with the STRSPLIT function.
I am using it to extract the file extension from a string where it
might not be at the end.
However in the process I am also eliminating addition elements, not
found in the extension.
For example

file='Image.img'
filter='*.img'

file=STRJOIN(STRSPLIT(file,filter,/EXTRACT))

file='Iae'

desired output:
file='Image'

Is there a way, with the same input as above, not to extract individual
parts of the name found in the filter/pattern?
