SYMPTOMS
If you type one or more backslash characters (\) in the Field name, Form
name, or Company name of a MIF form created using the Systems Management
Server MIF Form Generator (MIFGEN.EXE), the backslashes do not appear when
you view the inventoried user information, and they may cause other parts
of the text to disappear.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
versions 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2. We are researching this problem and will post
new information in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
