Parameters

TRUE
If TRUE is specified, single quotation marks appearing at the beginning and end of a file name are interpreted as meaning the file name contained inside the single quotation marks should override the current working directory instead of being appended to the current working directory. Any single quotation marks inside the beginning and ending quotion mark are treated as part of the file name. This is the default.
FALSE
If FALSE is specified, a single quote at the beginning of the file name, as well as all other single quotation marks contained in the file name, is treated as part of the actual file name. The entire file name, including the leading single quote, is appended to the current working directory.

Examples

To treat quotation marks as part of file names, enter the following code:
