SYMPTOMS
The ADIR() function does not return "." and ".." when the D option is specified.
CAUSE
The Macintosh file system does not support current folder notation (.) and subfolder notation (..); therefore, they are not returned when this function is executed.
MORE INFORMATION
Steps to Reproduce Behavior
In the Command window, type the following:
=ADIR( myarray, "*.*", "D" )
? myarray(1, 1)
In FoxPro for Windows or FoxPro for DOS, "." will be returned. In FoxPro for Macintosh, the first file or folder encountered will be returned.
