It is not a bug, it is a documented restriction on the code field of the
database:
(from minivend.html, Section "The Product Database")
The product code must be the first field in the line, and must be unique.
Product codes can contain the characters A-Za-z0-9, along with hyphen (-),
underscore (_), pound sign/hash mark (#), slash (/), and period (.).
The space will probably also cause problems in loop constructs etc. I
suggest you replace it with hyphen/underscore.
