I have a server that was set up with a directory with a space in the name. I have found out from Microsoft’s site that a directory name with a space in it will not be recognized at the command prompt. You will get an error similar to “The name specified is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.” The workaround they say is to put quotation marks around the entire filename or put a ^ before the extended character. I cannot figure out how to type this out. If the directory is actually mapped to a drive for ex: in explorer you would see – test server (M:) – How do I get to this directory at the command prompt?
