Removing slash from a string

I have need to remove couple of slashes from a string (in a macro), then reassign the value to the same macro. Is there an easy way to do it in VBP 8?

Original String
1. STRING1 - "\\Machine1" (STRING1 IS A MACRO)

Expected:
STRING1="MACHINE1" (Removing "\\")

It totally worked... Thanks a bunch.
A quick qs though, is there a list of similar functions available in VBP help? or you just called a VB function?

It depends. In this case, a VBScript function is the way to go.

For built-in script functions in Visual Build, see

For manipulating the Visual Build object model, see
