' FUNCTION: GetTempFilename
' Get a temporary filename for a specified drive and
' filename prefix
' PARAMETERS:
' strDestPath - Location where temporary file will be created. If this
' is an empty string, then the location specified by the
' tmp or temp environment variable is used.
' lpPrefixString - First three characters of this string will be part of
' temporary file name returned.
' wUnique - Set to 0 to create unique filename. Can also set to integer,
' in which case temp file name is returned with that integer
' as part of the name.
' lpTempFilename - Temporary file name is returned as this variable.
' RETURN:
' True if function succeeds; false otherwise
