Bug is such a strong word. Perhaps unexpected behavior is a better term. I can not calculate a field that has a backslash character in it. The reason why I would like to do such a thing is for manipulation of hyperlink fields. Say I have linked to an image file on a networked drive on one machine, and find that the image is on a drive mapped with a different letter on another. It would be nice to make use of the significant string capabilities that are built into the calculate function.

Anyway, if you try to do a calculation on a field that contains a backslash, you get the follwing error:

Error computing calculation. Please check your formulae.

line 1:16: expecting "", found /

Hi Ben,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Turns out that this character was not considered to be valid. Ive changed this and will be in the next released version. Id like to push it out today or tomorrow but that depends on a lot of things.
