    Seems awfully specific - fastest would be to just re-type it

    Here's a User Defined Function that you can put in a worksheet or use in a VBA macro


    Option Explicit
    
    
    Sub test()
        MsgBox ChangeString("Mel\EGGER\mdf.p2m")
    End Sub
    
    
    
    
    Function ChangeString(s As String) As String
        Dim i As Long
        
        i = InStr(s, Application.PathSeparator)
        s = Right(s, Len(s) - i + 1)
    
    
        i = InStrRev(s, ".")
        s = Left(s, i) & "png"
        
        ChangeString = s
    End Function
