    Smile Strange behaviour - not programming related:

    Hi folks, I just made an observation I thought I'd share with you for future reference:

    [1] Created folder on desktop and called it C#_Videos.

    [2] Downloaded tutorial videos from here
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/ex...harp/learning/

    [3] Copied a number of C# e-books in *.chm format to same folder from elsewhere on my PC.

    [4] Tried to view table of contents / read e-books, but couldn't - getting a "The page cannot be displayed" error in the right hand pane of the e-book.

    [5] Rebooted machine - problem persists.

    [6] After some head scratching and double checking discovered that the cause of the problem was in my use of # in the folder name - for some reason this causes a problem with the e-books. Renamed the folder to CSharp_Videos - everything OK.

    Has anyone experienced anything similar?
