   I think, there is no easy way to handle all file names in   
   pure batch code. Either drop only a single file on the   
   batch file or make sure, there are no problematic characters   
   in the file names. An other solution could be, to process the   
   file list in an external program and add "" to any file name.   
   It could maybe done in pure batch, but that wouldn't be an   
   elegant solution.   
      
   Or take a look at Windows PowerShell.
