Hi,

on my systems it's running with a single set of " .

The corresponding tag looks like this:

 <execute display='Installing ENU_Q832483_MDAC_X86 ...'>
   <program>%systemdrive%\install\type2\Q832483.EXE</program>
   <arguments>/C:"dahotfix.exe /q /n" /q:a</arguments>
   <hide>False</hide>
   <wait>true</wait>
  </execute>


Btw, I have taken your directory settings in the above mentioned example :} .

Hope that helps
Michael

I'll attach a log file latter have not got one handy right now, but I'll elaberate a bit more on the problem....

everthing acually works and sp2 does install, but it displays the two lines on top of one another. I hope that makes sence.
