STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in FoxPro version 2.5b for Macintosh.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Problem

1. Create a folder on the desktop named " Test" (without the quotation

   marks). Note that this name contains a leading space.

2. Start FoxPro.

3. In the Command window, type "FILER" (without the quotation marks).

4. In Filer, display the contents of the Desktop, which is shown as a

   directory (folder) below the root directory (parent folder).
