QABUTIL Filename was exported incorrectly in .QAB file - K4000016 - 02 Aug 2000

When QABUTIL imports quoted strings it treats the backslash character as an 'escape' character (similar to its use in C/C++ strings). However the output file for a QAB program was exported without being 'escaped' so that backslashes used in the path part of the filename caused the filename to be imported incorrectly.
