Problem:

When a copy statement appears in quotes with trailing spaces, for example: Copy file "xyz.cpy ", the compiler issues an error "Unknown COPY file "xyz.cpy " specified. Once the trailing space is removed, the compile works fine. Because the spaces are within the quotes, the compiler assumes that the spaces are part of the copy file name. This did not occur in previous versions of Server Express, why is it happening now?

Resolution:

This was a bug in previous releases of Server Express. Compile should never have resolved to the file xyz.cpy. The correct behavior is for the space to be considered part of the file name. The defect has been corrected in Server Express version 5.0 and all future releases.
