Good day everybody,

Just like to enquire whether could we allow backslash (\)
in the records of MS Access 2000?
Is it a reserved special character in the database?

Thanks for the time.

Yes provided it is in the correct field type
text
date
hyperlink
memo

not numeric or you may find its operand function causes probs

hope this helps
