If you are dping this from WSH, FSO has everything you need. use the ShortPath
attribute (I assume this is a file):
Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set f = FSO.GetFile( _
"C:\Program Files\My Company\My Program")
WScript.Echo f.ShortPath
If you don't have them already, you are going to find the docs very useful:
