removing backslashes

Ejlersen

Hi

Anyone having any idea how I can replace double backslash characters in a string with single backslash characters?

 Example "\\\\NS2009\\hp color LaserJet 2550 PS" replaced to "\\NS2009\hp color LaserJet 2550 PS"

Best regards

    The funny thing here is that I get an error running rexCompile("\\") without running RexMagic(nil) first.

    So, some kind of magic must be happening, even for rexCompile :-)

    The problem I'm facing is that its a printer name I wan't to pass on to a form and a script to be replayed. I don't know what will happen if I try to adress a printer with forward slash instead of backslash - but I could try. For paths I've always used forward slashes and they work fine - so maybe it will work for printer driver also?
