lets pretend that this is the file:
=========begining of file=================
c:\winnt\system32\vbchkw2k.exe c:\DLL Compile Checker
path2
path3
path4
path5

=========End of file===================================

I need to be able to programatically go throught a text file like the
above and put quotes around "DLL Compile Checker".

Thanks for any input.
