Hi Ann, I believe that I can clear up your confusion. It is indeed the backslash that you need to use. Forward slashes are only used in UNIX based file systems and Web directory structures. In my United States computer braille the symbol is the (ou) sign.
I hope that helps to clarify things for you. Best wishes.

Whenever I have to use computer braille to define where a file is or to create a new file, the paths and so on have forward slashes in them. I'm slightly confooz`ed! <smile> And I want one of those chocolate fish too! Somebody, years ago, sent me some Timtams from Australia. I loved them! Wish they'd sell them here! Ann P. -- Ann K.
