string functions

Hi,
i have this problem to solve,
I want to remove the very last "\" from a string
example : "C:\abcd\abcd\"
I want to convert this string to "C:\abcd\abcd"

I tried to use

StrLoc $0 "C:\abcd\abcd\" "\" "<"

but $0 = 11 instead of 1
so StrLoc counts the location from the end of string but doesnt start the search from the end of the String so it still gives the first "\" found. Is there any way to solve my problem?

Thanks
