SUMMARY

In the Microsoft Windows operating system versions 3.0 and 3.1, Fax Manager for Windows version 1.0 allows you to save files with embedded spaces included in the filename (for example, MYFILE.TXT can be saved as MY FILE.TXT).

If you do a directory listing from the MS-DOS prompt, the filenames with embedded spaces become visible. If you attempt to display the file with the TYPE command, the following error message displays:

Filename Does Not Exist.
Embedded spaces are not valid filenames with the MS-DOS and Windows operating systems. Microsoft recommends you do not save any files with embedded spaces.
