map i:=Server/vol1:Data\SW Solut Mgt Stratosp\

Why does this mapping not work? I can map as far as the Data folder, but
something in the syntax for SW Solut Mgt Stratosp fails to map.

Any ideas greatly appreciated

The spaces. Try using the 8.3 form of the folder name, or put the
path string in quotes.

Thanks, but nope it doesn't take it.
I have used the 8.3 convention, underscores, double (& single) quotations,
added in %1 at various points, but no luck.

Also I have admin rights so it isn't a rights thing either.

Any other ideas?
Anyone?
