how to use backslash ?

MySQL treats backslash "\" as an escape character , so if we enter a
string "abcd\efgh" into MySQL database only "abcd" gets into the DB.

Is there any specific database setting available in MySQL to alter this
behaviour so that the entire string "abcd\efgh" gets inserted to the DB

Hi,

to use the backslash, you have to escape the backslash - so a \ becomes a
\\.
