How to split a string

[andrewsmd]

I am receiving an array of file names using the glob function. I need to split those strings based on their folder names. Can anyone tell me how to split the string on a \. i.e.
C:\testFolder\test.txt

I want to get an array that would look something like this
arr[0] = "C:"
arr[1] = "testFolder"
arr[2] = "test.txt"

Thanks

Try something like that :)
