process.start("winword", filename) can not open file with space in the path and name

[BLiu]

Hi, ​

I am trying to write a class which can open file with selected application. for simplicity, now I just hard code the varaibles.​

the problem: if the path or file name has space in it, even it exist, winword still can not open it.​

could someone kindly show me what I did wrong and how to do it properly.​

Thanks in advance.​
