fmplugin Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 Greetings, I would like to be able to delete a file using the dos command line. I can use the send message script and get it to work one level deep: Ex. cmd /c DEL c:myfile.txt But when I try to go multiple levels down I cannot get it to work EX. cmd /c DEL c:Program FilesFileMakerFileMaker Pro 7Web logsmyfile.txt How do I escape the empty spaces between the directory names? Thank you for any assistance with this. Joe Mele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdurniak Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 to use windows long file names, you must put the path in quotes, e.g. cmd /c DEL "c:Program FilesFileMakerFileMaker Pro 7Web logsmyfile.txt" gregory durniak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
