I need the basename + extension of a file in a relative path in an environment variale. Eg: if I type in the argument ....Appdatabintest.jpg the resulting environmental var should contain test.jpg. If I type an argument of the bat sript like sub1sub2input.png, it should contain input.png. This can be done with a for statement, with delims=, and choosing for the LAST field. I don't know how to select the last field.

Batch Extract path and filename from a variable
is found this script for extracting all the file-parts from an environment
variable:
@ECHO OFF
SETLOCAL
set file=C:Usersl72rugschiriDesktopfs.cfg
FOR %%i IN ("%file%") DO (
ECHO filedrive=%%~di
ECHO filepath=%%~pi
ECHO filename=%%~ni
ECHO fileextension=%%~xi
)
And the complete list for extracting information from the first parameter
of the .bat script:
%~1 - expands %1 removing any surrounding quotes (")
%~f1 - expands %1 to a fully qualified path name
%~d1 - expands %1 to a drive letter only
%~p1 - expands %1 to a path only
%~n1 - expands %1 to a file name only
%~x1 - expands %1 to a file extension only
%~s1 - expanded path contains short names only
%~a1 - expands %1 to file attributes
%~t1 - expands %1 to date/time of file
%~z1 - expands %1 to size of file
Which may be used, for example:
set file=%~f1
set filepath=%~dp1
set filename=%~nx1
Or as a local FOR variable:
for %%a in (..Desktopfs.cfg) do (
set file=%%~fa
set filepath=%%~dpa
set filename=%%~nxa
)
