Running eclipse with -data for setting the workspace [message #247603]

Hi,

sorry for this silly question, but setting the workspace via parameter does
not work for me. I used.
http://help.eclipse.org/help21/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse. platform.doc.user/tasks/running_eclipse.htm

My workspace is: C:\Documents and
Settings\vogella\Desktop\Documents\08_MyDocuments\10_Eclipse \Documentation

I tried:

C:\Eclipse\eclipse.exe - data "C:\Documents and
Settings\vogellaDesktop\Documents\08_MyDocuments\10_Eclipse\ Documentation "
C:\Eclipse\eclipse.exe - data C:\Documents and
Settings\vogella\Desktop\Documents\08_MyDocuments\10_Eclipse \Documentation

I know it must be something silly I'm doing wrong but I'm not able to find
it.

Any advice?

Best regards, Lars

Ah, sorry, just realized that I typed - data instead of -data. Works now.

Again sorry.
