Anyone have Moved from VMS to WINDOWS?

[Deskin, Bob]

I'll assume you mean more than just launching QUIZ from QTP which can already be done using OS commands. Are you talking about creating reports from QTP or passing data to QUIZ. How is a REPORT command in QTP any different than launching QUIZ using an operating system command?

As far as enhancements go , Why don't we just add quiz function into qtp
or vice versa? Just let us run the report command in QTP please!
