    Sub AAA()
      Dim OldString As String
      Dim NewString As String
      Dim lPos As Long
      
      OldString = "E:\Ksilenio Projects\Example\ProjectID_12\ytko.SL"
      lPos = InStrRev(OldString, "\")

      NewString = Mid(OldString, lPos + 1)
    Or
      NewString = Right(OldString, Len(OldString) - lPos)
