Subject:      Pipe when file location has spaces
Comments: To: sas-l@uga.edu
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

I have been using pipes to read the list of files in a Windows folder
on a server.

for example

libname mydir pipe "\\server\share\foldername";
data dirlist;
    infile mydir pad missover;
...
run;

was successful at reading the contents of the folder.

Now, the server admin has changed the share name to a share that has a
space in the name.

No longer does the pipe work, and I can't figure out what to change to
make the pipe work when there is a space in the share name. Help!
