- Microsoft FoxPro for Macintosh, version 2.5b 
- Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Macintosh, version 3.0b

SYMPTOMS
========

When you are using the FoxPro for Macintosh command editor, double-clicking a
word highlights any spaces trailing the word. In most applications for the
Macintosh, double-clicking selects only the word itself.

RESOLUTION
==========

This behavior is by design to ensure compatibility with FoxPro for MS-DOS and
FoxPro for Windows.
