My turn.
I have been dutifully trying to manage my TMP files.
However I had a user yesterday get the 'Out of Disk space' message.
After some digging, we found that the C:\Temp directory was crammed
full of stuff.
So I need a way to clear out that directory on everyone's machine on
a daily basis.
I'm thinking of adding a command line to my logon.bat that everyone
has to use, but I'm a little unclear as to the syntax.
DEL C:\Temp|*.* sounds right but I'd like some confirmation.
Jan,
Here is a routine that you can use to automatically take care of such
housekeeping without having to worry about all error messages and the
SCRATCH settings, etc.
-- Start here ...
SET VAR vFolderAndFiles TEXT = NULL
SET VAR vFolderAndFiles = ((CVAL('SCRATCH'))+'\*.$$$')
SET ERROR MESSAGE 2262 OFF
SET ERROR MESSAGE 2263 OFF
SET ERROR MESSAGE 2926 OFF
DELETE &vFolderAndFiles
SET ERROR MESSAGE 2926 ON
SET ERROR MESSAGE 2263 ON
SET ERROR MESSAGE 2262 ON
CLEAR VARIABLE vFolderAndFiles
-- End here ...
Have fun implementing this technique as you application exit routine!
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
