    Help me to avoid file path setting errors in batch files

    Hello,

    I am trying set paths for my C-Fortran project via Batch file & Control File. Can anybody please help me to verify that I am putting
    correct path syntax in these files. Because I am getting some debug assertion error or some sort of CLR error then it is difficult
    for me to identify troubles so just wanted to confirm whether the path setting syntax is correct or not! if not, I can suspect
    something else for causing error.
    My project path
    ---------------
    c:\Users\UsrAJ\My Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\mg1g1_perfo

    Control File Path Setting (Filename: comcheck.ctrl)
    --------------------------
    MG1G1-BATCH=c:/Users/UsrAJ/My Documents/Visual Studio 2008/Projects/mg1g1_perfo/input/MGProj.Batch % ascii file has to be specified
    in batch file


    Batch File Path Setting (Filename:MGProj.Batch)
    -----------------------
    Project_Name=mg1g1_perfo
    Date=10/01/2013
    Version=1.0.0
    Source_code_Path=c:\Users\UsrAJ\My Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\mg1g1_perfo\source
    //#Inputs#//
    GEOxFilename=GEOx.csv
    GEOxFilepath=c:\Users\UsrAJ\My Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\mg1g1_perfo\input

    Kindly help ASAP.....

    This is a long shot because I have no idea what you're talking about but the windows command line won't accept filenames with spaces unless they are delimited with double quotes. Wrapping your filename in double quotes might help?
