Alerts and path to sound files

[dsfalc]

I'm wanting to set the following alert, however NT will not compile the WAV file path and reports the error: Unrecognized escape sequence CS1009:

Alert(CurrentBar.ToString()+VolumeThreshold.ToString()+Bars.Period.ToString()+Instrument.FullName, NinjaTrader.Cbi.Priority.Medium, Instrument.MasterInstrument.Name+" "+Bars.Period.Value+Bars.Period.Id+":  Volume Alert "+VolumeThreshold, "C:\Program Files (x86)\NinjaTrader 7\sounds\newalert.wav", int.MaxValue, Color.Black, Color.Yellow);

I didn't used to require the path with the 32 bit version, but with the 64 bit version, NT can't locate the sound files.

Hello dsfalc,

You can add @ character in front of path here:

Alert(CurrentBar.ToString()+VolumeThreshold.ToString()+Bars.Period.ToString()+Instrument.FullName, NinjaTrader.Cbi.Priority.Medium, Instrument.MasterInstrument.Name+" "+Bars.Period.Value+Bars.Period.Id+":  Volume Alert "+VolumeThreshold, @"C:\Program Files (x86)\NinjaTrader 7\sounds\newalert.wav", int.MaxValue, Color.Black, Color.Yellow);
