Getting only the filename with no extension

This code
Code:
--------------------
=MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("[",CELL("filename",A1))+1,FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))-FIND("[",CELL("filename",A1))-1)

--------------------
works almost perfect for my needs; however, I need it to drop the
extension to where only the name of the name of the file is left.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!
 
if all of the extensions are three characters try
=left(MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("[",CELL("filename",A1))+1,FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))-FIND("[",CELL("filename",A1))-1),len(MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("[",CELL("filename",A1))+1,FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))-FIND("[",CELL("filename",A1))-1))-4)
