GetExtension is not a member of string

[tushar (Tushar Gupta)]

Hello Everyone,
How can I remove this error, plz help?

[nimin (nimzz)]

Hi @tushar,

Please change the expression as Path.GetExtension(strFileName)

Warm regards,
NImin

Hi @tushar,

Could you please share the error that you are getting now?

[tushar (Tushar Gupta)]

Hi @nimin
It’s still the same.

Change strFileExtension Data type from genericvalue to string and it should be
strFileExtension = Path.GetExtension(strFilePath)

[Abisha (Abisha gopalan)]

Hi,

what is the datatype of your strFilePath variable? if its Generic value change it to string

[mhk15 (mehak)]

make strFileExtension variable string variable

[Abisha (Abisha gopalan)]

Your strFilePath is Generic type variable thats wat you are getting that error. instead of strFilePath use just Path.Extension(“path”)

[tushar (Tushar Gupta)]

Hi @Emman_Pelayo
As you said I did the same but nothing changed.
And Variable type is string.

[tushar (Tushar Gupta)]

Hi @Abisha,
It’s not working.

[Emman_Pelayo]

Based on your several screenshot, you are assigning
strFileExtension = strFilePath.GetExtension(strFileName) -this is incorrect

It should be
strFileExtension = Path.GetExtension(strFileName) - (Path is a class, not strFilePath)

[Abisha (Abisha gopalan)]

Pls find the sample

FileName is String variable
strFileExtension is String varible

path.getExtension(FileName)

[Abisha (Abisha gopalan)]

You are using strFilePath instead of Path
