1. BUG:

     In vfp9 (and vfp6, vfp7, vfp8), the maximum number of characters for the GETENV() function is 255,
     now the maximum number of characters for the GETENV() function is 8191.


2. CAUSE:

     There are some BUGs in the following code.


3. RESOLUTION:

     We can write some code to fix the BUG.
