Bernie, TEMP=C:\TEMP and TMP=C:\TEMP explicitly are NOT required, however at the dos prompt when you issue the SET command, the folders that are pointed to by the TMP and TEMP variables must exist.
Example from my XP Pro: TEMP=C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp TMP=C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp The above are equivlent to the User Variables on the My Computer>Properties>Advanced>Environment Variables tab. TEMP=C:\Windows\Temp TMP=C:\Windows\Temp Are the System Variables on the My Computer>Properties>Advanced>Environment Variables tab. This location is used for processes involving Windows itself. User programs that utilize temporary files utilize the User Variable Location. These temp folders are pointed at depending upon who is the current user of the Machine session. You COULD change to the previously described TEMP=C:\TEMP and TMP=C:\TEMP in the User Variable location, but the rationale would escape me. If you just want to conveniently look at the contents of the Temp Folder, just create a shortcut on your desktop to point to it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bernard Lis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "RBASE-L Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, December 27, 2003 5:23 PM Subject: [RBASE-L] - RE: Insufficient memory to load protected mode R:Base > Buddy, > Are you saying we should have or should not have a C:\temp or c:\tmp. > I have XP Pro and do not have either of these folders.
