If this profile parameter is specified, Natural assigns a unique file
name to the temporary work file generated during the sort operation. Any values
specified with the ETID profile parameter are
not included in the file name.
By default, Natural creates work file names with the values of the
ETID setting and the user ID embedded. This results in
file names which are unique to a particular Natural session, but may cause
problems in environments where the ETID contains
characters which are invalid within a file name, or where multiple Natural
sessions are running which use the same user ID and no
ETID specification (thus possibly resulting in work file
names for sort operations being created which are not unique).
| Possible settings | specified or not specified | If TMPSORTUNIQ is specified, Natural
generates a unique name for the temporary sort work file.
