Trouble with spaces in filenames?

(1/1)

arrrgh:
I'm using Codeblocks 8.02 with the MinGW compiler and Windows XP and am having problems trying to compile files with spaces in the path. My project is in My Documents, so the path id C:\Documents And Settings\username\My Documents\prott\. Lots of spaces there. The error is:

--- Code: ---mingw32-gcc.exe: and: No such file or directory
mingw32-gcc.exe: Settings\username\My: No such file or directory
mingw32-gcc.exe: Documents\prott\audiolib\dsl.c: No such file or directory
--- End code ---
So I went into the Compiler and Debugger Settings->Other Settings->Advanced options and ticked "Force quotes for filenames in compiler command-line" and "Force quotes for filenames in linker command-line" but it still gives the same error. Should I just move my project to the root directory or is there a way around this problem?
