I have no idea how does the Windows shell work, and how does it handle quotes and escapes, but the problem is caused probably by the white space in your path. Here are my suggestions:
system $filename, "john.doc";
or:
system qq("$filename" john.doc);
Maybe try escaping every space in your $filename before:
$filename =~ s/ /\\ /g;
I haven't tested it myself.
