Hans,
I would first double check space (can you copy a large file there?) and permissions on sys(2023), config.fpw settings, where the program was started from (it might happen unintentionally dblclick an exe on CD for example though it'd error much earlier). With no config.fpw settings tmpfiles default to 'work dir' in application shortcut. Might someone played with it?

From within code I'd also test if it's specific to that part of code or really an issue with temp work space:

create cursor xx (f1 c(250),f2 c(250),f3 c(250))
for ix=1 to 100000
 insert into xx values ('')
endfor
lcTemp = sys(2015)
sort on f1 to (m.lcTemp)
erase ( m.lcTemp + '.*' )
use in 'xx'
