Hey all,
As always, thanks in advance!
I am trying to save a ppt presentation but am having problems regarding spaces
and am wondering
if I am doing something wrong or whether this is a bug? Also, is there a way
around this other
than not using spaces in paths or filenames? I can create filesnames without
spaces but don't have
much control over paths.

WB.SaveAs("C:/temp/00_FINAL." + time.strftime("%Y.%m.%d.(%I.%M.%S%p)",
time.localtime()) + ".ppt")
saves the file C:\temp\00_FINAL.2007.07.16.(09.43.50AM).ppt
but
WB.SaveAs("C:/tmp dir/00_FINAL." + time.strftime("%Y.%m.%d.(%I.%M.%S%p)",
time.localtime()) + ".ppt")
gives the error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

Also,
WB.SaveAs("C:/temp/00 FINAL." + time.strftime("%Y.%m.%d.(%I.%M.%S%p)",
time.localtime()) + ".ppt")
yields:
