    HI,

    I have a package deployed to server sql123\T456(2008 R2). Now, I am trying to run the package from the server, I see that variable with the server name is having sql123\\T456 at the run time. Just wondering this is something to do with \???

    Any help will be appreciated..

    Thanks,

    VG

    Yes. In the SSIS expression language, the \ is an escape character. Thus, if you want to have \ in your text, you need to escape it with itself, resulting in \\
