Re: VFP 9: MD Bug

by "swdev2" <wsanders@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jan 1, 2008 at 10:59 PM

Hey Gene -
I tested this with VFP 8 sp2
on W2K sp5 -
but i changed up yer code a bit - using:
 md ("ABC\ABC")
   md ("ABC\DEF")
   md ("DEF")
kinda constructs.

SAME RESULTS.
You should re****t it as a bug with the standard bug re****ting service at
MS -
Mentioning it here DOES NOTHING to 'get it looked at'
