n

An integer that specifies the number of blocks in the buffer for temporary tables.

Use Buffer Size for Temporary Tables (-Bt) to specify the size of the buffer pool for blocks/records from the temporary table. Progress uses the value you specify for temporary databases used during the session the same way it uses Blocks in Database Buffers (-B) for permanent databases. The default value is 10.

See the Progress Programming Handbook for more information on temporary tables.
