function ShowShortName(filespec) { var fso, f, s; fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject"); f = fso.GetFile(filespec); s = "The short name for " + "" + f.Name; s += "" + "<br>"; s += "is: " + "" + f.ShortName + ""; return(s); } |
Visual Basic Script | Copy Code |
---|---|
Function ShowShortName(filespec) Dim fso, f, s Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set f = fso.GetFile(filespec) s = "The short name for " & UCase(f.Name) & "<BR>" s = s & "is: " & f.ShortName ShowShortName = s End Function |
