space in file path!

Question

When i use  a file path like "C\ test cases\testfile.csv", the file cannot be opened..
I know the problem is the space in my  path. If  i use "C\ testcases\testfile.csv", then its ok. Is there any tricks to come around this problem.

           ProcessStartInfo pSInfo          =  new ProcessStartInfo( "Excel.exe");
           pSInfo.WindowStyle               =  ProcessWindowStyle.Maximized;
           pSInfo.Arguments                   =  filePath;
           Process.Start(pSInfo);


thanks n regards

Answer 1

Try to put quotes around the path

pSInfo.Argument = @"""c:\test cases\testfile.csv""";

or if you prefer

pSInfo.Argument = "\"c:\\test cases\\testfile.csv\"";

I have the same issue , but the problem is that it works on my development just fine (the file path without quotes) but on the client machine it doesn't work . I just want to know what is the root cause of the problem that spaces work on some machines and other machines it doeasn't.
