Q:

Insert removes backslash

With Entity Framework I'm inserting a json string with all quotes escaped. 
For example: "{\"PDFName\":\"Test \",\"PDFDesc\":\"test desc\"}" 
Somehow the backslashes are getting removed from my string before the insert and the value in the database is:
"{"PDFName":"Test ","PDFDesc":"test desc"}" 
Any ideas?

A:

Sounds like you're missing one level of "escapes". I.e. escape your string once more (essentially replacing all the \ with \\; but don't foget about non-escaped " as well).
Similar things happen in other cases, e.g. when using a string in a SQL statement,
