DIRNAME()
Determines the name of the current directory

DIRNAME([<cDrive>]) --> cDirectory

determined (a colon is unnecessary). The default is the current drive.

Description
DIRNAME() determines the current directory name on the selected drive.
You can use this function to construct complete access paths.

null string.
