[QUOTE="ron4mac, post: 753942, member: 63497"] You can't use spaces in a file path unless you put quotes around the whole path name or escape the spaces (e.g Excel\ Site\ Surveys). An easier way would be: type [I][COLOR="DeepSkyBlue"]cd<space>[/COLOR][/I] in the terminal; drag the folder in question to the terminal window; press [I][COLOR="DeepSkyBlue"]return[/COLOR][/I] - this will get you to the correct directory; then type [I][COLOR="DeepSkyBlue"]chmod 755 *.xls[/COLOR][/I] and [I][COLOR="DeepSkyBlue"]return[/COLOR][/I]; done.
