poor/buggy code

Listing Reviewed: Isolating file extensions
Strengths: no comment
Weaknesses: it's wrong
Details: This code snippet is poor, and has a bug, making most of it useless/unnecessary.
str3 = intHowLong - intHowLong + 3
is subtracting intHowLong from itself.
All this does is say :
str3 = 3
It will *always* = 3. Then it uses that value in here.
strExt = Right(strFilename, str3)
You'd might as well just summarize all this down to the one line below.
strExt = Right(strFilename, 3)
The bug basically means that even checking the total length was a waste of code & time.
Better would be to look for the '.' and get the length one one side of it. Remember that not all file extensions are 3 chars long.
