I am having a few problems with trying to replace backslashes in a date string on C# .net.
So far I am using:
string.Replace(@"\","-") but it hasnt done the replacement. Could anyone please help?

replaceAll("\\/", "/");
If you want to include a backslash character itself, you need two backslashes or use the @ verbatim string: var s = "\\Tasks"; // or var s = @"\Tasks"; Read the MSDN documentation/C# Specification which discusses the characters that are escaped using the backslash character and the use of the verbatim string literal.
We can use the replace() function to replace the backslashes in a string with another character. To replace all backslashes in a string, we can use the replace() function as shown in the following Python code.
Replacing a Single Backslash( \ ) With a Double Backslash( \\ ) Using the replaceAll() Method. This is another solution that you can use to replace the backslashes. Here, we used the replaceAll() method that works fine and returns a new String object.
string.Replace does not modify the string itself but returns a new string, which most likely you are throwing away. Do this instead:
myString= myString.Replace(@"\","-"); On a side note, this kind of operation is usually seen in code that manually mucks around with formatted date strings. Most of the time there is a better way to do what you want (which is?) than things like this.
