<div>
Could you clarify your question?<br />
The property <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.filedialog.filename.aspx" rel="ugc nofollow">Filename</a> contains both the &nbsp;file path and extension.<br />
e.g. A filename value could be:<br />
c:\temp\myfilename.txt<br />
if you need only the file name not the path use Path.GetFilename method:<br />
Path.GetFilename(&quot;c:\temp\<wbr />myfilename<wbr />.txt&quot;)<br />
This method returns myfilename.txt<br />
<br />
For other path methods and code samples on how to extract only parts of your file path, check:<br />

You cannot (easily) change the behaviour of built in dialog boxes and as far as I know, there isn't an option to enable this behaviour.

Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is an object-oriented programming language implemented on the .NET framework, but also supported on other platforms such as Mono and Silverlight. Microsoft launched VB.NET as the successor to the Visual Basic language. Though it is similar in syntax to  Visual Basic pre-2002, it is not the same technology,

Delphi is the most powerful Object Pascal IDE and component library for cross-platform Native App Development with flexible Cloud services and broad IoT connectivity. It provides powerful VCL controls for Windows 10 and enables FMX development for Windows, Mac and Mobile. Delphi is your choice for ultrafast Enterprise Strong Development™. Look for increased memory for large projects, extended multi-monitor support, improved Object Inspector and much more. Delphi is 5x faster for development and deployment across multiple desktop, mobile, cloud and database platforms including 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 10.

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.
