In a bash script, the following doesn't work:

VMROOT=/var/lib/vmware/Virtual\ Machines/
cd $VMROOT


But this does:
cd /var/lib/vmware/Virtual\ Machines/

I've tried putting the variable value into single and double quotes but that
approach doesn't seem to be working.  Any pointers on how to make it work?
