vb.net How to pass a string with spaces to the command line

Question

I am trying to call an external program using Process:

    Dim strExe As String = \"E:\\Projects\\Common Files\\mktorrent.exe\"
    Dim p As New Process
             


        

Answer 1

It's really an old - but unsolved - problem. My 2 cents of contribution.

Use CHR(34) before-and-after the string, delimiting it like:

Arg = "Name=" & chr(34) & "John Doe da Silva" & chr(34)

Just it!
