Overview:
Vault Loader misses the backslash (\) character when creating or updating a text field.
Example:
The string This\is\a\test\ in the Loader Sheet (below) loads as the following in Vault:

The user needs to utilize \\\ instead of \ in the loader file.
Example:
This\is\a\test\ then becomes This\\\is\\\a\\\test\\\, which consequently appears in Vault as such:
