But I'm wondering why the string contains backslashes in the first place. For instance, if the character following the backslash is 'n', maybe the two characters are meant to be interpreted as an escape sequence, and you should replace them both with a linefeed. But if you really just want to get rid of those characters, shouldn't you replace them with an empty string instead of a space?[/qb]
My thoughts exactly. But it appears the OP has left the virtual building.

Piet (aka prometheuzz)
