QTP's QTPSCR file

thanks to all for the advice I received.  My problem is fixed.

The problem was specifically with the location of PHTEMP.  When run as 
a background process, PHTEMP defaulted to an area where we did not have 
enough space.  To fix this, in the script I now point PHTEMP to a 
directory with enough space to create the needed work file, as in...

PHTEMP=/lots-of-space/PHTEMP;export PHTEMP

We may do a more permanent fix so that this dir would be used anytime 
for PHTEMP for our background process QTPs.

Thanks again, all.
