Hi Rebecca,

Location of VFP temporary files is determined as follow

1. TMPFILES=< temp directory > directive in CONFIG.FPW configuration file. It can be overritten by PROGWORK, SORTWORK and EDITWORK directives

2. If location of temp files isn't specified, the value of TEMP environment variable is used, if directory it specifies exists.

3. If it is not present either, than temporary files are created in startup directory

It's up to you which method to use.
