Hi Vincent, I wouldn't consider "/" being a good idea when it comes to file access, as is "\" not a good idea.
If I was asked I'd rather suggest to use something like a doubled underscore, say "__" as a replacement for "\". "__" is harmless in any regard, escaping is not complicated. As an alternative I could imagine to replace "\" by string "bcksl_" or something alike. I'd avoid using either "/" or "\" - but these are just my 2 cents here ... Take care Dieter Jurzitza P.S. I'd never ever thought that I'd rise such a discussion starting from the menu bar question :-) -- ----------------------------------------------------------- | \ /\_/\ | | ~x~ |/-----\ / \ /- \_/ ^^__ _ / _ ____ / <°°__ \- \_/ | |/ | | || || _| _| _| _| if you really want to see the pictures above - use some font with constant spacing like courier! :-) -----------------------------------------------------------Am Freitag, 2.
