Hannelore De Grande [email protected] is trying to change
Stata's temporary directory:

Hannelore is trying to set the STATATMP environment variable from
within Stata. This is not possible. All advice in the referenced
FAQ is for setting the STATATMP environment variable in the operating
system.
Instructions are given in the FAQ for doing so under Windows,
Unix/Linux. Hannelore should take a look at the FAQ again now with
the understanding that all instructions in it refer to the
operating system, not to Stata.
