Hi friends
according to help file ADDBS does not duplicate if one does exist(ie. backslash).
my following code returns 2 backslashes ! am i doing anything wrong here ?

LOCAL lctmp
m.lctmp = ALLTRIM(FILETOSTR('Network.txt')) && this has c:\windows\
m.lctmp = ADDBS(m.lctmp)
MESSAGEBOX("temp version " + lctmp ) && this displays c:\windows\\
