Bug? Ampersand in Sub's description yields '(invalid description)'

[walt61]

... and does not show the description. Unless there is a way to escape the ampersand (I searched but didn't find anything on the forum), perhaps this is a bug?

'This sub's description does & not work because of the ampersand it contains
Sub DoesNotWork
   
End Sub

Try this:

'This sub's description does work & it's cool.
Sub NowItDoesWork
   
End Sub

Nice one, thanks NJDude

The same thing happens with "<" in the description. You need to replace it with "&lt;" and it will display properly as "<".
I thought I'd mention it in case someone else has the same problem.
