I have a problem replacing 2 consecutive backslashes in fields.
Let's say I have multiple artists in the field Artist, each separated with 2 consecutive backslashes :
Eminem\\Dido
When I try to use Actions --\> Replace. I would replace backslashes with a space :
"" ---\> " " (only as whole word is NOT checked)
Tried this one too :
"\\" ---\> " " (only as whole word is NOT checked)
Both did not work. I have the same issue when using the Replace with regular expression :
(Replacing 2 backslashes with nothing)
Regular expression : "\\"
Replace mathes with : ""
Thanks.
