There are two different problems. Ant scripts don't usually suffer from the the spaces-in-directories problems, as they don't usually, if coded correctly, involve constructing command lines as strings. (The ant tasks, if used correctly, will handle the quoting issues correctly automatically). I assumed this was inheriting the problem from a .bat file -- but I don't see any obvious sign of that, and fixing the .bat file with the known problem doesn't solve it.
But here's a better workaround for you. Instead of using Documents and Settings, use the short 8.3 name for that directory -- use 'dir /X' to find it. That will bypass the issue for you - unless your IT folks disable short names, which I think is unlikely. I'm kicking myself for not thinking to suggest it earlier. I've had to resort to it often -- but not in many years, thankfully. I just verified with a "test proj" directory that I can reproduce the problem, and that using the short name avoids it.
