move files in DOS

I want to move a folder to a floppy, how?

copy fulloriginalpath fullnewpath

I think that'll work...

Thanks, I'll try it...

xcopy /s

I can't change to the dir I want because there are spaces in it.

You need to use the short filename format, where the name of a directory or file is shortened to characters with a ~1 after it. (the ~ I find can only be types using the ` key). So for a file like this:

C:\Program Files\DevStudio\HoverCmdButton\Hover.ctl

becomes > C:\PROGRA~1\DEVSTU~1\HOVERC~1\HOVER.CTL

Thanks Squirm. I will certainly try that. If I can get the little bit of stuff I want onto a floppy then I think I'll just format...
Edit: So who's right about the copy thing?

In DOS (at least in DOS boxes) you can use quotes.

Dir "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98\Projects" would give you the directory contents of that directory.

That is almost exactly the path I want except that the last part is My Projects. So what is the right "copy" command?

Copy "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98\My Projects" "A:\My Backup"

I think will work... I've never used quotes in a Copy before.

ok what about deleting the files that are on the disk?

nevermind I deleted the files off the disk with del.

I accidently deleted the files on the startup disk instead of my other disk. Could someone please tell me what files are supposed to be on the Windows 98 startup disk? I have Win98SE. Just make a startup disk in Add/Remove programs if you don't have one then tell me what all files are on there. Please.
This is important. I hate Linux. Please help. After I save the files I want on the floppy I guess I'm going to format then install W98 again and never ever put Linux back on.
