This will be quite mundane given the esoteric exchanges of late but I do need some help. I need to open two files from within MS Access which I'm trying to do using the Shell function.
Call Shell("C:\TSEPro\g32.exe" & " " & "E:\Food\rec-temp\recipe_fields.txt " & filePath, 1)
This opens TSE and the first file but the variable contains "file name with spaces.txt" so I get four other files open. Trying to use apostrophes either in the variable or the shell command results in an error in TSE being unable to open any files. I control the file names so I could just use underscores in the names but I'm pretty sure there will be a better solution.

What about embedding the double quotes within single quotes:
Call Shell( "C:\TSEPro\g32.exe" & " " & '"E:\Food\rec-temp\recipe_fields.txt "' & filePath, 1)

Are you able to find out the short file name from MS Access ? If so this short file name is simpler and very likely may be used within a command line without major complications.
If you are lucky enough to use 4NT/TCC/Take Command you can verify short file name by :
DIR weird-file-name*.* /f /b /x
This will give you the short file name. I like to use this form (short) very often because I have a macro on Tessie, which I call from Alt-Enter that grabs the word underneath the cursor and if that's a file name, it opens it. IOW it opens the file under the cursor.
Just in case anyone else needs this macro, it's below (very simple/humble) :
------------------------------------------------------
proc mcursorfile()
string owordset[255]=Query(wordset)
string ofilename[255],filename[255]=""
string extensions[255],fileext[255],testname[255]

// autoexec.bat
filename=GetWord()
filename=Upper(GetWord())
if RightStr(filename,1) == ":"
filename=LeftStr(filename,Length(filename)-1)
endif
ofilename=filename
fileext=SplitPath(filename,_EXT_)
if fileext == ""
extensions=Query(defaultext)
else
filename=SplitPath(filename,_DRIVE_+_PATH_+_NAME_)
extensions=SubStr(fileext,2,Length(fileext)-1)
endif
lnt=NumTokens(extensions," ")
for lni=1 to lnt
testname=filename + "." + GetToken(extensions," ",lni)
if FileExists(testname)

break

and SplitPath(filename,_DRIVE_) == "" and SplitPath(filename,_PATH_) == ""

for lni=1 to lnt
testname=filename + "." + GetToken(extensions," ",lni)
testname=SearchPath(filename + "." + GetToken(extensions," ",lni),GetEnvStr("PATH"),".")
if FileExists(testname)
found=TRUE
break
endif

abandon=TRUE

I've tried several combinations of quotes and apostrophes but they all
result in TSE being unable to open any file.

One more trick:
insert double quotes escaped, e.g.
\"filename with spaces\"
does that work?

1. OK, I see that I have Microsoft Access installed on my computer (see screenshot).
2. So if you give me very precise instructions (like 1, 2, 3, ...) I will try to reproduce the issue and see where I can come up with.

Tea, though ridiculed by those who are naturally coarse in their
nervouse sensibilities...will always be the favored beverage of the
intellectual.

I guess it is the best when you export your setup and let me import it.

No idea if this is doable from Access, but it is an existing TSE solution, with a small drawback.
If you can list all your files to be opened in a file that has no spaces in its name, then TSE can open them with its "ldflist" macro.
For example, if file "d:\myfilelist.txt" contains
d:\file 1.txt
d:\file 2.txt
d:\file 3.txt
then this command will open the file list plus the three files:
g32.exe d:\myfilelist.txt -eldflist
The small drawback is that d:\myfilelist.txt is loaded too and becomes the current file.
A nice benefit is, that you are not limited to TSE's limited command line length.

That worked even better than you thought as writing the target file
name and the template file into a third file and opening it with the
suggested options resulted in just the two required files being opened.
Mission accomplished. Thank you.
