Expression is:

myString.replace(/\\/g, "/")

But backslash has a special meaning in strings - besides char itself it is also flag to escape the character it precedes. Thus your string value should be:

var myString:String ="C:\\Documents and Settings\\Kiran Etukuri\\Application Data\\Macromedia\\Flash Player\\Logs"
