Anyone have Moved from VMS to WINDOWS?

[Ken Langendock]

Hold on here.

If I alter my subfile names in my PH source, that
would mean all my subfiles are in the same location at
run time as well.

Currently I create folders for each run of a program
to allow me to support the client. If something screws
up I can go into the folder and see the log as well as
the subfile created. If I put everything in
c:\subfiles\, I lose that option.

Am I understanding this correctly or did I go otu to
left field?
