LABEL Truncates Multiple Spaces in Disk Label (96936)

• Microsoft MS-DOS operating system 6.0
• Microsoft MS-DOS operating system 6.2

SYMPTOMS
The LABEL command converts multiple spaces to a single space when you
specify the label on the command line. If you do not specify a label on the
command line, but instead wait until prompted, multiple spaces are
preserved. The following examples list the commands and resulting labels:
Command Resulting Label
-------------------------------------------
label a: disk 1 DISK 1
label a: <ENTER>
disk 1 DISK 1
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in MS-DOS versions 6.0, 6.2,
and 6.21. We are researching this problem and will post new information
here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
