I am trying to extract a filename Nsences_2016_10_10_12_50.csv from below field value.

D:\Program Files\X620\ABC\TGF\Files\sss\Nsences_2016_10_10_12_50.csv Complete, status : 226 Transfer complete." 
| rex field=raw_field "D:\\(.+\\)*(?<filename>.*)\.csv Complete, status : 226 Transfer complete.

I am extracting as below.

| makeresults 
| eval raw_field="D:\Program Files\X620\ABC\TGF\Files\sss\Nsences_2016_10_10_12_50.csv Complete, status : 226 Transfer complete." 
| rex field=raw_field "D:\\(.+\\)*(?<filename>.*)\.csv Complete, status : 226 Transfer complete." 
| table raw_field filename

Please help me. Thanks in advance.
