First of all I corrected the scratch settings as per Razz.
The problem I seem to run into, but is easy to work around is this
I am trying to update(or sync) 2 identical databases with data from a table, 
and this scenario does not work:
Connected:       DatabaseA, Table:   TableA
sConnected:     DatabaseB, sAttached Table: TableA as alias TableB
To update the data I am projecting a temp tableA from TableB where data does 
not exist, and inserting it into TableA
Then projecting a tempB table from TableA and inserting it into TableB
if I try to create both temp tables in consecutive order, the process fails - I 
get error disk problem
however if I create tempA, do the process, drop tempA, create tempB and do 
process everything works

drop TempTableA
drop TempTableB
project temp TempTableA from TableB where......
project temp TempTableB from TableA where......
do my updating
this will fail

however
drop TempTableA
project temp TempTableA from TableB where......
do my updating
drop TempTableA
drop TempTableB
project temp TempTableB from TableA where......
do my updating
drop TempTableB
this will work

The work-around is simple but why will the first scenario not work.
