working with strings

[shezh]

Hi, I'm starting a process with ProcessStartInfo, setting the 'Arguments' property to a filepath to the file I want to start the process with. However, the process I start is complaining about the filepath - since the filepath has spaces in it, it only seems to pass to the process the filepath upto the first space, and then ignores the rest. The process I'm trying to start is regsvr32.exe and the argument is a filepath to a dll I want to register. Could anyone please help me? Thanks a lot, Shehzad

Use quotes: regsvr32 "C:\My folder\myLib.dll" In parameters "\"C:\\My folder\\myLib.dll\""; Best regards, Alexey. -- modified at 7:18 Tuesday 18th April, 2006

Maybe it works if the Arguments string includes quotation marks: startInfo.Arguments = "\"c:\My File.txt\"";

You skipped extra slash: startInfo.Arguments = "\"c:\\My File.txt\""; Best regards, Alexey.

Ups :-O Thanks for the addition. Hopefully my silly fault didn't cost the questioner some valuable time.
