Passing Filename as a Parameter to a Window

Ignition
1

I am passing a filename as a parameter to a window containing a PDF viewer. When I pass the filename as

\10.5.1.40\Users\Public\Documents\SCADA\DS-SD300H.pdf

The leading \ gets stripped off and I get

\10.5.1.40\Users\Public\Documents\SCADA\DS-SD300H.pdf

How can I format this to get the full UNC for the filename?

In scripting you have to use two \ for every one because of being escaped. So do the following:

\\10.5.1.40\Users\Public\Documents\SCADA\DS-SD300H.pdf

Thanks Travis, that’s the ticket. :prayer:
