Here is another alternative:

<exec program="ISCmdBld">
  <arg value='-p "${WorkDirInstallShield}\NWEA_MAPAdminWeb_Install.ism"'
/>
  <arg value='-a "MAPAdminWeb_Install"' />
  <arg value='-c "Release 1"' />
</exec>

Subject: [Nant-users] Re: <exec> string literals

Thanks for the help, here's the syntax that made it succeed(note the

<exec program="ISCmdBld" > 
    <arg value="-p
&quot;${WorkDirInstallShield\NWEA_MAPAdminWeb_Install.ism&quot;" />
    <arg value="-a &quot;MAPAdminWeb_Install&quot;" />
    <arg value="-c &quot;Release 1&quot;" />
</exec>
