This trick might be limited to the development environment, but you can change the path in the registry (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualFoxPro\8.0\Options\TMPFILES) using the registry class that comes with VFP, call SYS(3056) to load the new settings and change the registry value back to its original value.
