Glad to hear the property file can help you. I remembered that from an
earlier ticket.
I'm ignorant of WebLogic (and many other things) but perhaps they have
altered the script that invokes ant to mess with spaces from the
command line? Any way you can check that?

Bill,
I tried your test and received the following error:
C:\>ant -Darg1="boo hoo" show
hoo""=="" was unexpected at this time.
However, if I run with no spaces, there is no
problems.
C:\sptst>ant -Darg1="boohoo" show
Buildfile: build.xml
show:
[echo] arg1 + boohoo
[echo] space + c:/Program Files/
[echo] file1 + i exist
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 1 second
BTW, I am using the exact same version of Java as
you. Your script does give me the idea that I could
use a command file to write a date to a file, then
call ant. Not the most elegant solution, but the
easiest for the client to tolarate.
Thanks,
Jim
