In addition, there is a strong recommendation not to use macros for filenames, because the filenames can now contain spaces. If we have

cFile="File with spaces"
use &cfile

...the last line will translate into

use file with spaces

and Fox will complain about the last two words, giving a syntax error. The way out is either

use "&cFile"

or, far better (and faster)

use (cFile)
