Remarks

The following code illustrates the use of the ShortPath property with a File object:
 

Sub ShowShortPath(filespec)

Dim fs, f, s

Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

Set f = fs.GetFile(filespec)

s = "The short path for " & "" & UCase(f.Name)

s = s & "" & vbCrLf

s = s & "is: " & "" & f.ShortPath & ""

Response.Write s, 0, "Short Path Info"

End Sub
