    string cleanString = dirtyString.Replace("\\","");

    This will remove all non alpha-numeric characters if that is what you are looking for

    string cleanString = Regex.Replace(dirtyString, "[^A-Za-z0-9]", "");

    if it's just one char - use the Safe old Replace function

    Candy = Replace(Candy, "\", "")
    and if you need to replace the " character itself, just replace chr(34)
