Hi ya A.J.,

    From what i know, your temp files are just that, files that windows
programs creates, (by making a copy of the origional files), to use while
you are modifying them.  The idea being, that in the event of a crash, all
you loose is the temp. file, and not the origional.  If you use ms-word, you
would notice the program routinely saving the document you were working on.
I believe this is the temp. file being copied over to the origional file, so
that a crash after this event, will only result in the loss of a small
portion of the modification you did to the document.



            Good Trading,
                    Mike

On a related point, is there anyone else out there who has gone through
complete system hangs (Win 95), and when they power it off (obviously,
without exiting properly), and run scandisk, they invariably run into
corrupted data in several windows/temp/~rmsXXXX files?  This really has
me stumped, and it's not getting any better.  Any advice here would
definitely be appreciated.
