[LBo] running commands on filenames with spaces

Hi,

I was trying to run a chmod command on a filename containing spaces,  and
bash thought that I was trying to run the command on each word in the
filename as if it was a different file.  Is there a character i can insert
instead of spaces so that bash will process the chmod correctly?

Thanks
Dave
