Thanks Emmitt
I will take a look but was mostly asking a hypothetical question
and if a user did not run Spyware cleaners or clean out the temp
Internet files every so often if that would make a difference.
I have some users that leave their computer on 24/7 and never
run any Spyware or do any maintained on the computer
until it crashes.

Marc,
At a DOS command prompt type SET and look at the result to see where it
goes. You can change this by editing the environment variable (My
Computer
/ Properties / Advanced / Environment Variables).

Sorry for this stupid question about Scratch TMP
Is that the same folder that Windows uses to store temp internet files,
cookies and other stuff.
If so, can that folder get so full of stuff that it causes clutter making
it
harder / slower for RBase to find its files among the Windows stuff?

I'm still running into this problem with RBDOS but it does not yet have

I'm super happy that everyone so far agrees that it is REALLY fixed in
RBWIN.
Until I have everything in RBWIN, I have to deal with RBDOS.
Nothing so far seems to eliminate the problem entirely in that
environment.
SET SCRATCH TMP is a fabulous "set it and forget it" feature which I am
drooling for.
Did you know that you can use the "SCRATCH TMP" setting in RBASE76.CFG
file,
to take advantage of automated settings for SCRATCH?
Here's how:
01. Locate your default RBASE76.CFG file in path, on your workstation, or
network drive
02. Use any plain text editor or RBEDIT to update the RBASE76.CFG file
Update the line 25 or so as follows:
SCRATCH TMP
03. Save the RBASE76.CFG for R:BASE 7.6 for DOS
04. Start R:BASE 7.6 for DOS
05. At the mighty R> prompt:
SHOW SCRATCH
Notice the user's default TMP folder
That's how you set the fabulous SCRATCH TMP setting in R:BASE 7.6 for
DOS.
Having said that, I am testing R:BASE 7.6 for DOS (7.6.4.30909) and I am
also able to use the "SET SCRATCH TMP" command at the R> prompt as well
as in my application startup .DAT file.
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
