running an external executable

Does anyone know how to get an executable to run by using it's full path? The command in question looks something like this:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
system('C:\Documents and Settings\Fast\FAST.exe')
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Apparently, the problem is the spaces in the path and it generates the following error:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
'C:\Documents' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is there a way around this problem? Putting everything in a location that has a path with no spaces is not really an option.
Thanks!
