String is Missing Backslash

[AndrewMcHorney]

Hello

I am working on a perl script and inside the script I am building a 
string. However the backslash does not appear.

Here is the code:

$DirCommand = "dir".$CurrentDrive.":\ /S"; where $DirCommand = "c"

I am expecting the results to be dir c:\ /S but my results are dir c: /S

This affects the execution of the command.

What did I miss putting in?

Thanks,
Andrew
