The move command in Win2k does not seem to recognize file names that have a space in them. Is there a better "move" command that does not descriminate? Mike L.G.

LiquidBinary,

Place the command in quotation marks.

for instance:
move "c:\documents and settings\fred\desktop\freds files.doc" "d:\Documents I Save"

Using quotations is a must for paths with spaces and/or long filenames.
