Subject: [scripting] RE: Register Dll's from bat file

I agree, sometimes it's easier to split to multiple lines instead of trying to 
deal with quote hell...  Also, sometimes instead of CD, I like to use pudhd and 
popd to make it easier to change directories and then return to the starting 
working directory after a command completes.     Like this:

pushd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Open Text\DM Extensions"
for %x (*.dll) do regsvr32 /s %x
popd

(pushd also works with UNC paths, which makes working with files in network 
locations easier, IMHO...)

I would multi line it, to avoid the inevitable quote struggle. Second line may 
need some work.

CD "C:\Program Files (x86)\Open Text\DM Extensions"
for %x (*.dll) do regsvr32 /s %x

Subject: [scripting] Register Dll's from bat file

How do I register all the dll's in a given path from a batch file? The catch is 
the path has spaces in it. Every combination of this I've tried fails.:

for %x in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Open Text\DM Extensions"(*.dll) do regsvr32 
/s %x
