[Gambas-user] Possible bug

[Charlie]

Hi Caveat and Benoît,

Thanks for the replys. I will try a workaround, and I am pleased it's 
not a issue for anybody else.

Should you be interested I have created a desktop video of the problem 
and supplied the code that causes my Gambas to crash. You will find the 
files at http://www.cogier.com/gambas/.

I have found that "SDir = Replace(SDir, " ", "\ ")" will cause a crash 
but "SDir = Replace(SDir, " ", "\\ ")" is fine.

Thanks,

Charlie
