Renzo Comolli ([email protected]) asked about including quotes
in a -window menu- item action:

In the current executable, quotes are being stripped from the
item action. Thus, Stata sees only
doedit C:/Documents and Settings/Renzo Comolli/My Documents/ ...
when the menu item is selected.
We have fixed this in our code here at Stata, and it will be
available the next time an executable update is released.
