# 290 Path Names with Embedded Periods Are Causing Invalid File Name or Path Errors

---

Maybe this could be a bug.. I don't know... I have the follow directory: C:\DELPHI\APP.4\VWEB
this is the directory of my application called VWeb, and I made this with Delphi 4, so the directory is App.4

When I will do a simple check at my table, appears a DBI Dabatabase Message saying "DBISAM Engine Error: 11010 Invalid Path or file name for data file C:\DELPHI\APP.DAT"

Your program is considering that DOT "." if the end of path? This doesn't happen when then path is C:\DELPHI\APP\VWEB...
