[RBASE-L] - Re: Can't create a temp table in Rbase 7.6 under Windows 7

That was it! I was using c:\temp...which worked just find under Win XP. Apparently C:\temp is not a good choice in Windows 7. 

A thousand thank yous!!!

Your scratch settings are either pointing to a non-existent folder or your user name does not

have create/delete authorization to that folder.

 

Although I have not worked with Windows 7 yet, the error you are seeing is related to your scratch settings.

When you create a temp table, Rbase creates this table as an $$$ file.  The scratch setting is where these files are kept by Rbase.  If Windows does not find that folder or the user name does not have the correct security rights, you will receive your error.

 

At the R:> type

R>Show Scratch

 

It will show you what the scratch folder/path setting is.  You can then verify if your user  name has the full access rights to this folder or if it even exists.

 

Although Windows 7 might be causing this error due to something else, it is the error you can get in XP due to the scratch setting.

 

Hope that helps and good luck.
