I am trying to send a file out to a directory. I would like it to go into a folder called SHARED PROJECTS - which has a space. Webfocus does not seem to like this. Here is my code
FILEDEF CENSUS DISK \\KAY\SHARED\SHARED PROJECTS\WEBSITE\IAPPS\CENSUS.TXT

There is a space between shared and projects.
Does anyone know a work around for this problem?

and if it does not have a space does it works?

I guess one way would be to use the dos 8 character version and see if it works
\\KAY\SHARED\SHARED~1\
WEBSITE\IAPPS\CENSUS.TXT

you could also try adding double quotes around the phrase with the embedded space, for eg.

FILEDEF CENSUS DISK \\KAY\SHARED\"SHARED PROJECTS"\WEBSITE\IAPPS\CENSUS.TXT

good luck

The first solution posted by Leo L worked, the second did not.

I think, that's an easy one.
Try to place
"SHARED PROJECTS" in quotes. That should work.

FILEDEF CENSUS DISK \\KAY\SHARED\"SHARED PROJECTS"\WEBSITE\IAPPS\CENSUS.TXT
