Nevermind... I missed William's post at first. That one seems to work.

I tried both of your replies and both give me:
C:\Temp\Office2013Bundle\FsPlugin.dll
21 File(s) copied
x was unexpected at this time.

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.

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
