I definitely have program listings from 1982 indicating OPEN "PRODUCT" without the "". That was at least pre-3.5b which was the most prevelant release during the 1980's. I can't imagine them going backwards on release 5.1 when 3.5b didn't need it.
Then again, MCD kinda splintered into the Spirit and Sequel flavors although I've got first hand experience on all 4 (Royale, Reality, Spirit & Sequel) and still recall being at 4 Gary Rd and seeing what happened if I omitted the "", for DICT and it worked. If I missed that release then I still maintain that it is not needed in any way now. I've got current UV, UD, MVbase, MCD, Mentor, GA, D3 clients and I know that they don't need it.
