Rob,

The "\" in Regex expressions is used as an escape character for the
characters that are used as commands in Regex expressions  to denote that
the character following it is not to be interpreted as a command but to be
interpreted literally. Hence if you wish to search for a "\" which is a
command character you have to precede it with another "\" , i.e "\\". The
expression editor is inserting the escape character automatically for you,

David
