Shell command

Postby paues » Wed May 09, 2012 2:24 am

There seems to be some problems with the Shell command.

Code: Select all

Shell Md "C:\Temp\Prognosutvärdering"

Code: Select all

%Path="C:\Temp\Prognosutvärdering"
Shell Md %Path

Code: Select all

Shell Md C:\Temp\Prognosutvärdering

Code: Select all

%Path="C:\Temp\Prognosutvärdering"
Shell Md {%Path}

Snippet 1: Works (i.e. creates the directory C:\Temp\Prognosutvärdering).
Snippet 2: Doesn't work, creates a directory with the truncated name C:\Temp\Prognosutv.
Snippet 3: Causes an EViews error. (This syntax works just fine if done from a command prompt.)
Snippet 4: Works.

(I am using the April 27 2012 build of EViews 7.2 Enterprise Edition.)
