Description
The TMPNAM() function returns a character string containing a unique temporary filename. By default, filenames returned by the TMPNAM() function have the extension ".tmp". The TMPNAM() function is particularly useful in multi-user applications where a unique temporary file can be created for each user process. The optional argument <expC1> specifies a directory where the temporary filename will created. The optional argument <expC2> specifies a file extension to use other than the default one of '.tmp'.
Example
name = tmpnam( tmpdir(), ".txt") report form Listing for event = "BALLET" to file &name print &name delete file &name
