Yes. My problem was I didn't realise the JSON standard supports escaped sequences. My program is only reading from the JSON file at this point, not writing. The JSON file is manually created with a text editor. So to be on the safe side, I now implemented my code to support both "d:/data" and "d:\\data" string data formats.
