I must say the Spanish Embassy was a nightmare and the staff were very rude. They kept him waiting for 2 hours in the corridor to collect the visa!! He felt that they could not find his passport!!
Yes, you can use the same visa to go to France.
I'm surprised they only gave you 1 month. I hope your husband gets a visa for a longer duration next time. Have a good holiday!
I'm not surprised they didn't give you longer than a month, my husband is also Albanian and has had schengan visas from the Greek, German and French Embassies in London, the most they have ever given him was 3 months multiple for Germany. It's so annoying, we had asked for longer as we were going for a weekend to visit one of my friends in September, having a holiday in Spain in October and then going for a wedding in Germany in December. We ended up not going to the wedding (my friend's) as his visa ran out just before - and we had given them all the dates.
He got a six week two entry visa for Greece and a 2 month multiple entry visa for France. I have friends who are in the UK on work permits and they manage to get 12month multi entry every time, my husband who is an EU spouse has a nightmare. The embassy staff are worst at the Greek embassy - try to avoid it at all costs (especially if Albanian - they initially ignored my husband's schengan application and offered instead to 'send him back home' for free!)
