>>As a matter of fact, I got into some trouble by testing this. I set TMPFILES to D: and forgot to change it back. This was in FPW 2.6. All of a sudden I got that I/O problem with users with a CD as D: and no CD in it.

I was sure it was different in FP2.x because I dropped using trailing backslash with VFP. OTOH I totally agree :).

I think that the problem is that the docs for TMPFILES only mention drive. I was too stupid to realize that it didn't mean directory also and always included it.< g >

Anyway, I just did the same thing with FPW 2.6 and got the same results that I got in VFP 6.0. So...
