Thank you for your reply.

This behavior appears consistent everywhere. For example (I am
working in a different directory now):
E:\workspace\BSP>dir *.h
 Volume in drive E is WORK
 Volume Serial Number is D28A-433E

 Directory of E:\workspace\BSP

09/03/2018 04:12 PM 828 BSP-Global.h
09/03/2018 04:12 PM 568 BSP-Main.h
09/03/2018 04:12 PM 632 DigitalInputs.h
09/03/2018 04:12 PM 8,528 DigitalInputsAutoGen.h
09/03/2018 04:12 PM 731 DigitalOutputs.h
09/03/2018 04:12 PM 10,073 DigitalOutputsAutoGen.h
09/03/2018 04:12 PM 502 DmaChannels.h
               7 File(s) 21,862 bytes
               0 Dir(s) 250,642,432 bytes free

Okay... Now:

E:\workspace\BSP>svn rm *.h
svn: E200005: Use --force to override this restriction (local modifications
may be lost)
svn: E200005: 'E:\workspace\BSP\B' is not under version control

Like before, it seems to find only the first letter of the filename.

Now if I go over to my Mac...

$ ls -1 *.h
BSP-Global.h
BSP-Main.h
DigitalInputs.h
DigitalInputsAutoGen.h
DigitalOutputs.h
DigitalOutputsAutoGen.h
DmaChannels.h

$ svn rm *.h
D BSP-Global.h
D BSP-Main.h
D DigitalInputs.h
D DigitalInputsAutoGen.h
D DigitalOutputs.h
D DigitalOutputsAutoGen.h
D DmaChannels.h

Caveat: My Mac is running svn 1.8.19; the misbehaving Windows machine
is running 1.10.2.

Any other thoughts?
