Inaccurate. Not only can MPEX report on temporary files, but it can also
report on files in the NEW domain. Assuming you know the PIN you're
interested in, the the following should show you what you're looking for:

  %showproc nnn;format=files

where "nnn" is the PIN. This will show *every* file opened by the PIN,
including temporary and new files.
