- Hi. I would apprecicate any help in answering the following question
- regarding assigns? When the volume being assigned has more than one
- word in it's title, such as - assign This Great Program:, I seem to run into
- trouble and the assign will not work. I have tried including an underline
- between each word (which were not in the original disk title) - assign
- This_Great_Program: and I have tried putting it within quotes, assign
- "This Great Program": but nothing seems to work. The second part of the
- assign command, i.e. the path and directory syntax seem to be ok and work
- fine. Could anyone offer any advice. Thanks very much.
