o need help with file name
« on: May 13, 2006, 11:14:33 PM »
whenever I try to do this in a batch file, start c:\documents and settings\me\desktop\file that I want
it doesn't pop up in a new window eventhough it works on, start c:\windows\notepad.exe
I think it's the spaces but nomatter what i try nothing works.
Do you know what im doing wrong?

yes ,as far as I understand the problem is that you are not putting " 's around your path:

call "c:\documents and settings\me\desktop\file.exe"

Thats all
