Long Path as command-line argument in Process.Start?

I am launching the EXTRACT.EXE command from my application using the Process
class. Everything seems to be working fine except the path I use as the
destination argument for the EXTRACT command has spaces in it, and that
poses a problem for the EXTRACT command.

How do I go about including a "destination" command-line argument that
contains spaces?

Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated.
