Cannot open a file in a document library inside a folder with period character.
Hi,
We have encountered a problem while opening a file inside a document library with a period character in the folder. e.g "foldername 1.0"
we can still open the file if we use open in windows explorer mode or edit the file from the context menu. but if you click on the file directly we get an error.
we are using WSS 3.0. any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ryan

This is expected behavior. Certain characters should not be used in site and folder naming conventions.
