Yes, the _qsql* files are temporary files for the queries, which
the BDE is trying to create in the same directory as the executable.
I don't know if there's any way to run the executable from a
read-only directory, such as on a CD-ROM, but tell the BDE to
create its temporary files elsewhere.  If anyone knows of a way,
I would also be curious to know what it is.
