  You would be well advised to create change that to df dr=C:\xy\temp, or
something like that (make certain to create the directory too!). That way
you can check periodically and delete the temporary files XY creates. If you
don't do this you will be finding files of the order
oeamqqa.tmp with 0 bytes cluttering up
your XY directory.
