GOAL:
Describing the temporary files within the Progress client.
FIX:
File whose names start with "Dbi" are used to hold data when temp table space requirements grow beyond the number of blocks specified by -Bt parameter.
Files whose names begin with "lbi" are 4GL local-before-image files used to hold subtransaction data (for example, subtransaction undo etc). Progress uses this file type to support the back-out of subtransactions and variables. If the number of lbi files grows too large, the procedures are using a lot of subtransactions.
Files whose names begin with "srt" contain scratch space for sorting (for example, 4GL browser scratch space, etc.)
Files whose names begin with "pge" contain edit buffer contents.
Files whose names begin with "trp" stores Data Dictionary changes until they are saved.
4GL clients have one each of these files.
They are created in the client's Temporary Directory (defined by the -T client startup parameter, or in the client session's starting directory by default otherwise)
