I've been puzzled for a while with the fact that there is no
'ExtractFileName' - type of function in the VCL that actually returns the
name of a file WITHOUT the extension part.

The solution is:

AnsiString as,fn;

as = "C:\\mydir\\myfile.ext"
fn = ExtractFileName(as);    // Get's "myfile.ext"
fn = ChangeFileExt(fn,"");    // Get's "myfile"
