Hi Ben,

AFAIK, VFP doesn't have problems with handling file or directory names with spaces. However, VFP application may have problems if it's coded incorrectly. For example,
lcFile = "C:\My Dir\My File.txt"
COPY FILE &lcFile TO ...    && will generate an error
COPY FILE (lcFile) TO ...    && works
