How Do I Display Special Characters in a Choice Control? (Magic xpa 4.x)

Some characters are used internally by choice controls. Commas, for example, are used to separate the items on the display list. You can still use these characters in your list: you just need to precede them with an escape character, the backslash (\). This applies to a blank, ampersand, and comma, as shown here.

You can even display a backslash as the last character of the last item by using two backslash characters. For example: A combo box that has the items of A:\ and C:\ should have its Items list set with A:\\,C:\\.
