Re^2: Problem running shell command from Perl

Thanks for your response.

I did try using "\\" as the separator, and also tried using 'q//' as described in your msg. In both cases I got the same result: "Error: The system cannot find the file specified"

If memory serves, &#{value}; is an HTML representation; you might have to designate those characters using the \x{value} or \N{U+value}. So you might try writing that part of the string as something like: `q/"C:\Users\James\Music\/ . qq/\N{U+22283}\N{U+35486}/ . qq/\N{U+25079}\N{U+24565}/ . qq/\N{U+32769}\N{U+27468}/ . q/ Vol. 2"/` [download] Does that help?

I tried several variations of this, but could not get any of them to work. The characters still seem to get mangled on the way to fsutil.	[reply]
