fix vim to allow editing paths that notepad accepts (i.e. accept '/' in paths as equivalent to '\')

On Win7, with vim 7.3.480 compiled for native windows,
if I try to edit a file:

gvim ../Documents/notes/note1.ini

gvim brings up an empty buffer and says "[New DIRECTORY]"
next to the filename.

If I do the same with notepad, it properly brings up the file.

Can vim/gvim be made to handle '/' as equivalent to '\'
on windows so it can handle paths like notepad can?

Thanks!
