oWrite - RTF - File Paths

[Michael Mantkowski]

Thanks Rudolf,

Your right.  Quick test revealed that I did indeed need to account for those
as well.

Hi Mike,

Keep in mind, that you will not only have to replace the "\", but also the
"{" and "}".


\    ->    \\    or    \'5c
{    ->    \{    or    \'7b
}    ->    \}    or    \'7d

Regards

Rudolf

Hi Geir,

Yes, that does work.  Thanks.  I can modify the code to replace any original
"\" with "\\".

Easy!

Would simply doubling the backslashes work?

C:\\ClienTrax\\Pictures\\Pict.tif

So in the plain text message replace «\» with «\\».

Geir :)
