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

=ADIR( myarray, "*.*", "D" ) ? myarray(1, 1)
