Solve : deleting files with spaces in between the name?

1.	Solve : deleting files with spaces in between the name?
Answer» hi, i have a problem suppose i have a file called " TEXT document.TXT" how do i delete from dos. the problem is the space between text and document. i have tried del text\ document.txt ( as in unix ) but it doesn`t work any help? THANKS in advance Include <path><FILENAME> in quotation marks or use the DOS 8.3 format and substitute a question mark for the space.del "text document.txt" del textdo~1.txt both work. If I had a SHORT name file like s t.txt (s, space, t, dot, txt) I could use del s%20t.txt but the name still has to fit in the 8.3 format unless you use "doublequotes".
