267.0. "NOTEPAD access violation (saving to bad pathname)" by AITG::DERAMO (Daniel V. {AITG,ZFC}:: D'Eramo) Wed Feb 22 1989 00:06

     In the NOTEPAD out of the box (OOTB) application, I chose
     the "Save As ..." choice from the "File" menu and gave it a
     bogus file specification (the device part wasn't a logical
     and wasn't a device).  (I was curious.)  There was a fatal
     access violation, so I immediately tried again and got the
     same result.
     
     Since this results in a loss of the notepad's contents, you
     may want to be especially careful when typing in pathnames
     there.
     
     I haven't tried this on the other OOTB's.

I QAR'ed this a few months ago.  I haven't checked the QAR system
lately to see what the status is.  As far as I know, Notepad is
the only OOTB with this problem.
