problem with space in folder name

Hello,

i have the following problem. I use WinSCP with a scipt to synchronisize some folders to a webdrive. It works fine if the folder name does not include a space (like "Bilder"). If it includes a space (like "Eigene Bilder") it does not work and I cant´t change to this folder on the webspace. Any idea how to solve the problem? 

@echo off
set pathname0="/users/XXXXXXX/Backup_PC/Laufwerk_J/Eigene Bilder/"


"C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\WinSCP.com" ^
  /log="K:\Test\WinSCP.log" /ini=nul ^
  /command ^
    "open sftp://xxxx:xxxx@sftp.hidrive.strato.com/ -hostkey=""ssh-rsa xxxx xx:xx:xx:Xx:xx:xx:xx:xx""" ^
    "cd %pathname0%" ^
   "synchronize remote J:\" ^
    "exit"

set WINSCP_RESULT=%ERRORLEVEL%
if %WINSCP_RESULT% equ 0 (
  echo Success
) else (
  echo Error
)

exit /b %WINSCP_RESULT%

OK, remove the quotes in the set command:

set pathname0=/users/XXXXXXX/Backup_PC/Laufwerk_J/Eigene Bilder/
