EFS to produce textfiles

[TASJL]

Just wanted to confirm as I got a situation on our EFS. Typically there is a line that says as an example

if (Symbol == "AC-MEX") { will produce textfile}

The EFS is loaded in the WATCHLIST so typically if the symbol on the watchlist symbol column is AC-MEX it will produce a textfile which it did. But if I replace "AC-MEX" with a mexican symbol like "ALFA\A-MEX" although there was a line in the code that says

if (Symbol == "ALFA\A-MEX") { will produce textfile}

No textfile were produce even though the symbol on the watchlist matched on the code. Does it not accept the \ symbol?

Thanks

The \ is an escape character in JavaScript so you need to escape it by preceding it with another \ eg "ALFA\\A-MEX"
