Thanks for the response, it got me on the right track and I got it working. Happy to help you! I originally did try “ instead of ‘ and have the same results. I was using ‘ because of the example here: http://wiki.freepascal.org/CopyFile > CopyFile('c:\autoexec.bat','c:\windows\temp\autoexec.bat.backup'); ' delimiters are mandatory within this example because we are writing paths as string parameters directly into the source code. I believe that I should use both ' and " in case of spaces within paths: CopyFile('"c:\my silly path\autoexec.bat"','"c:\windows\temp\my silly path\autoexec.bat.backup"'); or is the CopyFile function smart enough to include delimiters automatically? Best regards, Sandro Cumerlato
