Hello Everyone, I have an interesting regx problem I have been working on and can't seem to get. Here is a snippet out of my main code;

use strict;

my $filename='';
my $target_directory=''; # EXPRESS server Target directory

$target_directory = '\\\\express\f$\\exp_bak\\my.db';
$target_directory = s/$target_directory//gi;
$filename = $target_directory;

print $filename;

I am trying to extract my.db from the $target_directory utilizing one regx line only. The above print shows blank which makes sence. Anyones help is greatly appreciated.
