static void Filename(Args _args)
{
    Filename filepath;
    Filename filename;
    Filename fileType;
    str fileNameString,fileNamePath;
    ;
    fileNamePath=@"C:\Users\umesh.adroja\Desktop\DocumentsFile.docx";
    [filepath, filename, fileType] = fileNameSplit(fileNamePath);
    fileNameString= filename + fileType;
