Although it does not answer your actual question(because I also do not know), what I am doing is just making, maybe this suggestion would be a nice workaround: With my batch file, I drill down into the folder that contains my wxs files and call candle while I am there, that way the wxs files do not need a path at all

Subject: [WiX-users] filepaths with spaces Hi all! I require your collective knowledge on something I thought would be simple. Using Candle how do you address to source file's with a path that includes spaces? For example; "C:\my folder\main.wxs" I have tried using '-out' which allows using quotes, and seems to work ok, but then Light does not seem to be able to find the wixobj files?! It seems like something simple, but its driving me crazy!! Any help will save my sanity. Thanks!
