`Files belonging to my database` 

This is the setup of directories immediately after installation. 
It looks relatively straightforward - does it not? It might be a lot worse... The complete package comprises slightly more than 700 files, distributed over just these four directories (plus, from Version 24, an `HTML directory`).
By no means does one have to be familiar with every single file! Those that require or permit changes are listed in a `check list` for the administrator. 

In addition to this, a `Data directory` is created as a home for every new database. DEMO2 is itself a data directory: home to the demo database. A data directory can be anywhere in the file system of the user, it need not be appended to the program directory. Right now, you are using the %#uvB database on the %#uvD directory. 
(`More about it`). 

Every directory in the system can be used for working. The hierarchy depicted above can thus be located on a Fileserver, while every user may have a local work directory . Your work directory right now is %#uvW. 
Lastly, there is a directory for temporary files, %#uvM, used for result set intermediary storage etc. At the end of a session, these are normally deleted. 
More about installation in a separate `installation guide`.
