- Sounds like your program is trying to create a swap file in the root directory.
- What you will probably need to do is use the MAP ROOT command to make the
- working directory appear as if it is at the root level. For example
- MAP ROOT F:=SYS:USER\JOHN\MATHLAB
-
- Then execute the Mathlab program. I've never used the Mathlab program but
- from your error message it sounds like that is your problem.
