1. add .jpg if it isn't already there
   if char -4 to -1 of tFilename <> ".jpg" then put ".jpg" after tFileName

2. remove .jpg if it's there
   replace ".jpg" with empty in tFileName

Or to remove any file extension (sorry, a two-liner)
  set the itemDel to "."
  delete last item of tFileName

I'm sure other people will come up with many alternatives - that's the
fabulous thing about Revolution.
