>Each time I run my Visual C++ program that accesses a VFP 3.0 database, a file is created in the Windows\temp directory. The file has an eight digit name and the fxp extension. Example, 17933319.fxp. It is 22K in length. Any ideas where this is coming from? I had to eliminate 174 of these files that have been created over the last 4 months.

Sounds like Visual C++ does not clean up (temp files) after itself like VFP does. VFP, if exited gracefully, always deletes temporary files it has created during its session. Visual C++, just like VFP is creating a temporary file in the directory defined in the environment variable SET TEMP=C:\WINDOWS\TEMP. I am not familiar enough with C++ to tell you why it does not clean up after itself.
