using regex to extract file extension

Hello, 

 

I have the following filenames:

   aaaaaaa.xlsx

   bbbbbbb.csv

   ccccc.pdf

 

I am pretty new using the regex tool.

How would I create the Regular Expression to parse the above filenames and just show the file extensions (i.e.. xlsx, csv, pdf, etc.)?.

 

Thanks

@OEvangelista ,

 

Answer:  You wouldn't.

 

You would use this function:  FileGetExt(Path)

 

Cheers,
