... so it would be a a good idea, not to do that!
Or if you have long SAS jobs or sessions, either use always the same dataset
 names for that temporary ones, or use

proc datasets lib=work kill nodetails;
run;

from time to time to do a "garbage collection".

By the way: in some other OS than windows, where you have to define the
max-space for work, you have no advantage. Your task is simply stopped with
a error message if work is full.
