bash scripts and cd's....

I have NT4SP3 running Cygnus v20.

I have a script:

--- begin script ---
#! /bin/sh

cd k:
cd NormalDirectory
cd "Directory with a spaces in between"

exit 0
--- end script ---

This executes ok.  But, when I do a ls, the files echo'ed are the
files from HOME.  why?  If I do this manually, I could get to
"Directory with a spaces in between".  Any idea why?

What I would like to happen is when I run this script, I would
like bash to point to the contents of
"Directory with a spaces in between".  Any help is already
appreciated.

thanks,

jose
