oFileSysObj

Use: Required

Data Type: FileSystemObject object

Any object variable returning a FileSystemObject object.

Return Value

A String.

Description

Returns a system-generated temporary file or folder name.

Rules at a Glance

GetTempName doesn't create a temporary file or folder; it simply provides a name you can use with the CreateTextFile method.

Programming Tips and Gotchas

As a general rule, you shouldn't create your own temporary filenames. Windows provides an algorithm within the Windows API to generate the special temporary file and folder names so that it can recognize them later. The GetTempName nicely wraps this GetTempFilename API function.
