We use BAAN IVc4 and Portingset 6.1c17 and UNIX6.1 and ORACLE 11.2.
When we print a report, there will be made a tmp-file on UNIX in the dir.: $BSE/tmp.
My question: what makes the tmp-file unique? How does it get his tmp....number? Is this generated by BAAN-software or is it generated by the protingset software? Is it generated unique by user?

Hi,

It depends. For a report, when a report is opened, a temp file is created for processing. For a session, if there is a code to create it, its created. You can exclusively create a temp file using creat.tmp.file$() function.

Probably,bshell binary takes care of creating it & naming it. So yes, Porting set.
