How to edit the expression

Question

I created a variable Which i used an expression.

"\data\local\test"

And the error occurred

Expression cannot be evaluated. Additional information:

The string literal "\dataVocal\test"" contains an illegal escape sequence of "\d". The escape sequence

is not supported in string literals in the expression evaluator. If a backslash is needed in the string, use a double backslash,"".

Attempt to parse the expression ""\dataVocal\test"" failed and returned error code 0xC00470B8.The expression cannot be parsed. It might contain invalid elements or it might not be well-formed. There may also be an out-of-memory error.

Hi @Jefferson,

If a backslash is needed in the string, use a double backslash.

You may need to double the slashes in your expression.

"\\data\\local\\test"
