Dev-C++ v4.9.9.2 beta - not working

Dev-C++ isnt compiling like it should...actually, its not compiling at all.

Whenevery i try to compile, i get
[Build Error] No rule to make target `''../../../Program', needed by `''../My'. Stop.

I'm trying to compile a DLL with 3 files included in the project.

whats happenning here?

Try checking your addresses it could be a problem with the compiler test a hello world program.

The compiler often infers from file extensions which tool it should apply to the file in question, in order to incorporate it into the build. I don't understand the reference to "addresses" (paths?), but then, I'm not a "geak".

File addresses. Path names. They are the same in my book.

It looks to me as if it is not handling spaces in the paths correctly. Note that Program Files and My Documents are being truncated at the space, so the requested directories do not exist.
