xcopy- Batch File?

Yahoo! Answers - Batch File?: "Batch File?

In a batch file, I'm trying to copy all files from a particular folder on a shared drive to a specific folder on everyones computer. The following was an attempt:

Copy S:\Example\Folders\*.* C:\Program Files\Folder Name\ /-y

If the source is from anywhere on the C: then the code works with spaces in the folder name, but when I'm taking things from the S: then it wold works if the destination contains NO spaces in the folder names:

S:\Example\Folders\*.* C:\ProgramFiles\FolderName\ /-y

What do I need to do to make it copy to folders with spaces in the name?
