You might want to review the Dir command and its options. You could create a file and link to it from Access.

Good luck

Another way is to use FileSystemObject, which has methods to return what you want without having to parse strings.

Here are some FSO functions that process filenames. The first two, GetBaseName and GetExtensionName will both separate the filename from the extension.

Sub Test928346912487()
    Const TMP = "C:\Folder\File.txt"
    
    With CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
        Debug.Print .GetBaseName(TMP)
        Debug.Print .GetExtensionName(TMP)
        Debug.Print .GetFileName(TMP)
        Debug.Print .GetDriveName(TMP)
        Debug.Print .GetParentFolderName(TMP)
    End With
End Sub
