I have several thousand image files I want to copy from various Windows folders (a couple hundred) to one Windows folder. My plan was to cheat and build a paragraph to copy the image files. The problem comes when the source folder name has spaces in it. It seems COPY doesn't like them, and truncates the file name (actually the folder name) at the first space.

Example:
COPY "e:\TinyBearMarketing\GOLDCREST\Images\Purple Martin Decoys & Starling Excluder Doors\" PME2.jpg
results in:
** Error [ 201 ] **
Unable to open file "e:\TinyBearMarketing\GOLDCREST\Images\Purple

I've tried with and without quotes, so that isn't it. Has anyone found a way to overcome this, or a better way to do it? The reason I'm using COPY (well, actually COPYTO, a one-line COPY frontend) because I can build the COPY statements in a list driven JQL report.

Thanks,
Charlie Noah
