>Hi,

>I have not paid attention over the years when using Config.fpw. I always assumed my app was using it. Recently I needed to direct the location of TEMP files. I prompted the location in my app and in some locations it was in the LOCAL Users directory. Systems on VMWare had the location as E:\TEMP???? Don't know how that was determined. I then wanted the TEMP files to be in the C:\MyTemp\ directory locally. I added TMPFILES line to the Config.fpw and nothing changed. That file resides locally with the exe file. I then tried to bind it into the app and that still didn't work. I read the help file and that didn't help. I must be missing something simple.

You can specify the config.fpw when you start your exe, as a parameter. Yourexe.exe -cC:\MyTemp
