VFP 9 help about SYS(2023) says:
SYS(2023) uses the Windows API GetTempPath to search for the path
containing the temporary files.

DECLARE INTEGER GetTempPath IN "kernel32"  ;
		LONG nBufferLength,  		STRING lpBuffer
LOCAL lnBufferLength, lnReturn
lnBufferLength = 512
lcBuffer = REPLICATE( " ", lnBufferLength )
lnReturn = GetTempPath( lnBufferLength, @lcBuffer )
* Strip the null delimiter before returning the value
MESSAGEBOX( 'GetTempPath: '+ STRTRAN( TRIM( lcBuffer ), CHR(0), '' ) + CHR(13) + ;
     'SYS(2023): '+SYS(2023) )

Produces different results:

GetTempPath: C:\WIND98\TEMP\
SYS(2023): C:\DOCUME~1\ANDRUS\LOCALS~1\TEMP

Why?
In VFP 7 results are the same.

My VFP 7 and 9 applications use SYS(2023) directory to communicate and this causes my code to fail. How to fix this?
