Can I travel to spain with a swiss resident permit C?

[Stephen.T.Paige]

I am planning of going to Spain, and would like to know if I could travel to spain with my swiss resident permit and my other passport (as I can travel to france with my swiss resident permit)? And the guys traveling with me has a shengen visa, is that okay?

Thanks!

Yes, the Swiss type C residence permit waives the visa requirement to the other Schengen countries; same applies to a visa issued by Switzerland if it is a type C visa and it states valid for "Schengen States" in the first column.
