DOS Command

[Troy 2006]

I know this is not the ideal place to post, but I need to know what is the
exact proper format to copy a file from one drive to another drive when the
folder name contains a space in it.
Example:
I created a file called "Autocopy.bat"
The command line goes as follows:
xcopy c:\Folder\main.xls d:\Main Files\

The problem I'm having is the space between "Main Files" is not recognized
by DOS. How can I format this so the main.xls copy is made to D:\Main Files
???

Give a try to d:\"Main Files"\

Untested:

xcopy "c:\Folder\main.xls" "d:\Main Files\"

Why use XCopy when you're copying a single file.

And if you're doing this in a macro, you may want to look at VBAs FileCopy
command.
