You must be talking about QTP..  programing batch processing in QUICK is
much better, faster and easier.  Its just like programming in any other
language.

Better examples of "REAL WORLD" source code would be nice.  Also
documentation of "tricks and traps" in the PH documentation.  

The best quote I ever heard about Powerhouse was from Brian Lane, who said,
"You can't really 'program' in Powerhouse, you can only trick it into
working."  Which pretty much describes some of the 'fun' I've had making PH
do things that would have been SIMPLE in COBOL had COBOL been available.

We have this book, also.  I don't recommend it as being very helpful,
though.  

If you are a Cognos "supported customer", there is plenty of PH information
when you sign in to that section of their web site.

There is a book written on Powerhouse"
"Unlocking Powerhouse" by Ramon Alino
ISBN# 1-882498-12-7

I don't find this book listed on the web for sale anywhere.  
We have a copy of it, but have a new user that may need to use it,
so we need to keep our copy of it.
