Spaces in EXIF Section of Tag

[Archive]

I have tried for hours now tying to get exiftool to work with a space in the
Tag name. I have tried putting "" in every possible configuration that I can
think of with no sucess.

C:\temp\test it\exiftool -EXIF:Software="Created by Keith" "C:\temp\test it\testit.tif"

This line works like a champ. However, the tag I want to write to is not
"Software" but "XP Title". Could someone show me where the Quotes are supposed
to go? And possibly answer this question. If I put the tags in the EXIF section
under "XP Title", "XP Subject" will I be able to read them under file
properties?

I took a tiff changed the properties and the tags that were written were XP
Title, XP Subject, XP Comment, XP Keywords and XP Author so I am hoping that if
I can write these tags I can use the sort in Windows Explorer.

should help explain things.  You should be using XPTitle on the command
line.
