I'm so confused...

I'm trying to use dos to get to a certain folder, but I can't seem to go in to some folders with longer names. For example, I wanted to go in to "Documents and Settings" but when I type "cd Documents and Settings" or "cd Documents_and_Settings" it tells me that the directory doesn't exit.

Even "keyprogram" was too much until I renamed it to "key".

How do I go in to those folders with longer names?
I'm using Windows 2000 if it matters.

What FAT are you running? If you're running NTFS, you should be able to just type "cd documents and settings" If you're dealing with a 8.3 file system, you might have those types of problems with an 8 character cutoff....so it'd be something like "cd docume~1"

How are you opening a DOS box?

Try running cmd instead of command.com
