Thread: Batch File Problem

I am calling some batch file commands from my program. The first two ommands say Improper Syntax but the last one works.

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
using namespace std;

char Item[3][80];

void Title()
{
  cout << endl;
  cout << "TrainSim Object Installer" << endl;
  cout << "--------------------------------" << endl << endl;
}

void Convert(char *RouteName)
{
  cout << endl << endl;

  sprintf(Item[0], "copy *.s \"c:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Games\\Train Simulator\\Routes\\%s\\Shapes\\*.*\"", RouteName);
  sprintf(Item[1], "copy *.sd \"c:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Games\\Train Simulator\\Routes\\%s\\Shapes\\*.*\"", RouteName);
  sprintf(Item[2], "copy *.ace \"c:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Games\\Train Simulator\\Routes\\%s\\Textures\\*.*\"", RouteName);
}

void CopyShapesAndTextures(char *RouteName)
{
  system(Item[0]);
  system(Item[1]);
  system(Item[2]);
}

int main()
{
  char RouteName[50];

  Title();
  cout << "Whats the name of the target route? ";
  cin.get(RouteName, 50).get();

  cout << endl;
  cout << RouteName;

  Convert(RouteName);
  CopyShapesAndTextures(RouteName);
  //EditREF(RouteName);

  cin.get();
  return 0;
}

EDIT:
Also if I input a "RouteName" with a space in it. (My Route) It says cannot find path.

Lol, I cant believe I missed that.

But now, I still cant input a name with a space in it. Any ideas why?

EDIT:
I also want to read in a file with the extension .REF
The thing is I want it to read that file without knowing the name of it. Just open the file with the extension .ref!? Is this possible?

I tried

Code:

ifstream REF("*.ref");

But didt work

Thanks I'll try all that in the morning
