It appears my exuberance is premature. I'm still getting the swap exists 
error, but now only occasionally. Also sometimes after getting that 
error menu commands ("File>Open" or "File>SaveAs") have no effect until 
I open yet another file via the r-click context menu. The subsequent 
open-with files do not display the swap-exists error.

I copied ...[install location]...\vim\vim72\cream\cream-conf.example.vim 
to [same dir]\cream-conf.vim and added "let g:CREAM_CWD = 'C:\\TEMP'" to 
line 190 (just before "endfunction). I also tried "let g:CREAM_SWP = 
'C:\\TEMP'". The swap file is still being  co-located with the file 
being edited.

Then I moved cream-conf.vim to my .cream user directory (as reported by 
:echo g:cream-user). Still no change.

During my testing I notices :let g:... settings are remembered. For 
example if I make cream-conf.vim and cream-user.vim empty files and then 
run ":let g:CREAM_SWP='D:\\TEMP'" in the expert command buffer, close 
and restart cream, then expert ":echo g:CREAM_SWP" reports D:\\TEMP.

For all of the above cases "Tools > Addons > Cream config info" always 
reports no CREAM_SWP directory (below), while ":echo g:CREAM_SWP" 
reports as C:\\TEMP (or D:\\TEMP if that was the last setting tried).

   Cream_init_directory(): no $CREAM_SWP: &directory: .

Colour me confused.
And behind on my real work. I'll try some more tests tomorrow.
