(had all kinds of problems sending before)

In adding all available printers to a listbox with the ADDITEM or ADDLISTITEM method, network printers have an identification of "\\...printer"

I found it very interesting on how the listbox removes the first '\' when more than one is present.

For example use the following


this.lst1.additem("\abc")
this.lst1.additem("abc\abc")
this.lst1.additem("\\abc")
this.lst1.additem("abc\\abc")
this.lst1.additem("\> abc")

Can anyone explain why this is happening??
Is there a simple solution other than coding to determine replace '\\' with '\\\' before adding?

Thanks in advance
