.Run on path with brackets () 1

[bnothos]

I'm trying to get a .Run to work but my path has brackets in it ie:

"C:\Program Files\foo\foo (FOO)\foo.exe"

It chokes on the brackets. How do I escape them or do something so they will be correctly interpreted as part of the path?

Thanks

I don't think the () would cause an issue. If anything, it would be the space. Try:

objShell.Run Chr(34) & "C:\Program Files\foo\foo (FOO)\foo.exe" & Chr(34)

Excellent thanks!

Strangely if I moved the executable 1 directory up so I had no brackets in the path it worked so I assumed it was the brackets... This works though!
