Maya.env

I need to relocate the the save directory for the temporary files in Maya, and I know that I need to use a Maya.env file. But, what code do I need to use to relocate the temp files to something like C:\Mayatemp\ and what code do I need to put into the file to make Maya read the file from C:\Documents and Settings\(my profile)\?

-Thank you for your help.

When you are setting up a project, you can define where evrything will be saved...

you can choose the defult location or like you want, you can pick a place

Well, the problem is that every time I open the attribute editor box, I get an error about being unable to save the temp file, and I need to fix this.

Open up the Maya help files and look for information on the Maya.env file. There are some variable settings you can change to fix it. I can't remember what it specifically is at the moment.
