Filename to IPTC Title, but without extension. (Currently using DAM script)

Hello,

Apologies if this isn't the correct forum to ask this question:

I am currently using the DAM Filename to Title script with Bridge CS4 - http://www.damuseful.com/pages/PimpMyBridge.html - to get the filename into the IPTC title script. This however puts in the extension into the title field also. So a JPG file named 2000 ends up with 2000.JPG in its Title field. I wish to not have the extension appear in the Title field.

Is this possible by modifying the DAM script / using any other freely available script.

In case it helps, this is what the DAM script currently looks like:

#target bridge

if ( BridgeTalk.appName = "bridge" )

//-----------------------------------------------------------------------

//This script copies selected thumbnails' filenames to the title field

//Also shows how to add menu items

//The AdobeLibrary scripts must be loaded

//This script was created by John Beardsworth www.beardsworth.co.uk/ and modified by Peter Krogh www.DAMuseful.com

//This script may be freely distributed and modified

//--------------------------------------------------------------------

// Let's create our menu

    var menu = MenuElement.create( "command", "Write Filename to IPTC Title Field", "at the end of Tools");

    menu.onSelect = function(m)

{

var getFolderChildren = true ;

var filesOnly = true ;

var thumbs = getBridgeThumbnails ( TYPES.PHOTOSHOP_OPENABLE, getFolderChildren, filesOnly) ;

for ( var i = 0; i < thumbs.length; i++ )

{ thumb = thumbs;

   md = thumb.synchronousMetadata;

   md.namespace ="http://ns.adobe.com/photoshop/1.0/";

   md.Title = thumb.name;

}

   Window.alert ("Done " + i + " records");

};

There are also 3 other Adobe Library scripts that come with the download.

I know absolutely nothing about scripting, so baby-steps would be appreciated.

Many thanks.
