Hi Anurag,\
Will you please explain your question in more detail that from which place you want to retrieve file name ie from a directory where all files are stored and from any other place.\

If you want to retrieve it from directory then you can use combination of FileInfo and DirectoryInfo class to retrieve file name.\
\
Thanks.
