File type from file name

Question

Hi,
Is there any standard method to get a file type from file name?
File name can be ‘C:\test.doc’ or “C:\test’(test – is file) i.e. with or without file type extension.

You can use the Function module PC_SPLIT_COMPLETE_FILENAME
export paramter extension will tell the type of file
