I am trying to pass variable D:\\Data Files\\Invoice to $PATH when I execute robocopy with the variable $PATH robocopy states that d:\Data is not a valid source. How can I pass this variable so Data Files is considered one word???



Thanks for the help,

$PATH = 'D:\\Data Files\\Invoice'

?

Cheers

I've tried that and this is the output I get:

Started : Thu Dec 18 09:38:27 2003

Source - D:\Data\
Dest - D:\Backup\Files\

Files :
Options : /TEE /S /E /COPY:DAT /PURGE /MIR /R:4 /W:2

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ERROR : Invalid Parameter #7 : "d:\Backup\Invoice\12.18.03\SQL"

The source is supposed to be D:\Data Files\Invoice and the Destination is supposed to be d:\Backup\Invoice.

Stabbing in the dark here.... but could you do

Data+Files ?

I worked around the problem by giving it the 8.3 name and the script works fine under Windows.
