Overview
The PathLevelUp function trims a branch of the path of a string.
Syntax/Parameters
Syntax
string = PathLevelUp ( string path );
Parameters
path
A string containing a path.
Return Value
Returns a string containing the adjusted path or an empty string is returned if path does not contain path delimiters.
Remarks
The PathLevelUp function merely looks back from the end of a string until a slash or backslash is located and trims off the string back to that point. If a filename is attached to the path, it will be clipped and the path will remain. If the path string contains a trailing slash, it is removed and then the scan for the next slash starts. If there are no remaining slashes, an empty string is returned.
For example:
| Before | After | |
| R:\Path1\Path2\ | R:\Path1\ | |
| R:\Path1\Path2 | R:\Path1\ | |
| R:\Path1\cat.htm | R:\Path1\ | |
| R:\ | (empty) |
