Here is a different formula to try, but it requires you to type in the worksheet name the formula is on manually. Also, it requires your path/filename to not have multiple adjacent spaces.

=TRIM(RIGHT(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(CELL("filename",A1),"]Sheet1",""),"[",REPT(" ",260)),260))

the formula fails if the sheet name is not "Sheet1"
