Which cache folder to use?

[fishtech]

Hi,

Using FMP8.5 on Macs only, I have a routine to:

1. view a found set as a report with summary data

2. export the summary data to a txt file

3. import the txt file to a FMPro summary table

(NB. I am using a txt file since summary data cannot be imported directly from one Filemaker file to another (right?), and get(summary) fn will not work in this case).

To prevent the temporary txt files from confusing users I'd like to locate the them in either ~/Libray/Caches or MacintoshHD/Library/Caches.

Is there any reason that the Caches folders should not be used for thsi type of file? Should I use one over the other?

Thanks,

FT.
