#97372 - 2002-12-30 09:29 PM Variable with a space
GRF GRF Fresh Scripter Registered: 2002-02-15 Posts: 45 Loc: Ohio	I am trying to pass a variable that may contain a space into a batch job. I've enclosed it in "". Once in the batch job I'm trying to feed it to kix32.exe by code: @call kix32.exe mailbox.kix $1="%1" It works fine with a variable with no spaces, but won't work with spaces. Any thoughts? Thanks, _________________________ GF
