The real problem here (IMHO!) is NOT whether or not it is a bug or that the vfp7 documentation does NOT match the way the function behaves, but that the function was changed between version 6 and 7. The documentation matched the function in version 6 and many developers used the function expecting it to behave that way with success. Now, when building the same app in vfp7, those functions will return different results and that requires a lot of changing code to get the result you need! There was no warning when upgrading to vfp7 to be aware of this, or did I miss it????
