Location of Temp files during AlterTable |

Mark Elder | Hello,
It looks like there is a temporary file that is created during a call to AlterTable. In my case the file is created in the current working directory. Many of my users run in a locked down environment and are not local admins. When trying to alter a table I am getting a permission denied error. From using the LUA Buglight tool I found an *.ibk and a dbisam.lck that were created in the current working directory during the AlterTable call. I can have my users change the working directory on their shortcut to work around the problem. Is there a better way to correct this in my code? I know I could change the working directory to my database directory before calling altertable. I was hoping that maybe I missed a property somewhere that defined where this file is created. ibk appears to be an index backup file? I see a suppress backup flag on the call to altertable, but I would rather keep the backups if possible. I really can't tell if that is related to this file though. Thanks, Mark |

Mark Elder | There seems to be something about posting a question to a public forum that causes me to
think of other things I should have tried before posting Setting Database.Session.PrivateDir := TempDirectory; has solved my problem. Thanks, Mark |
