Remove slashes from sqlite

Question

Hi

I am creating an application in Flex that uses an embedded SQLite database. The data in the database contains quotes and other special characters which are escaped using a backslash or '\'.

Before I retrieve the data and render it in a Flex text area control I want to remove the '\'. Is there any function in Flex which can help me do this - some equivalent of stripslashes() in PHP?

Thanks & Regards,
Vinayak

There is no native method. Here is a result for "as3 stripslashes" from Google.
