Hello, Tom,

Thank you for your email

 Yes, what you say makes all sense, but I am not 100% sure if the program looks exactly as I wrote, I did it by memory. Anyway, I'll check it out tomorrow at office with my colleague and if more doubts arise, I'll get back to list.

Thank you for your prompt reply

Best,
Oliveiros

I don't know C# well, but if it's at all like C then the string that
is represented by this literal has only two backslashes, and when it
gets to the backend that reduces to one backslash, so it matches.
