Yes that works.
 
However, I found something very interesting.
 
If you run QUICK and from a menu, we call the $AT command to submit a job,
which runs QUIZ and/or QTP; the later RE-USE the same PHTEMP folder created
before QUICK ran.
 
In other words, QUICK creates a PHnnnn.TMP folder (where 'nnnn' is an
arbitrary number) and all QUIZ/QTP sessions later will not create a new PH
temp folder, but re-use the same one created by QUICK.
 
This is also answers our original SUBWORK error, that I raised to the group
a couple of weeks back. If the user submits a job to run QTP/QUIZ/QUICK from
a QUICK session, as the parent, and exits the system (ie: stops the first
QUICK session), then Powerhouse will actually REMOVE the temp folder, even
though the other sessions running in the background rely on it! Hence they
crash with SUBWORK because those subsequent sessions could not write to the
temp folder! It doesn't exist anymore!
 
I wonder if Powerhouse can be told that every time a new Powerhouse module
is created, that it create new and unique PH temp folders!?
 
Thanks

I think it is the Unix variable PHTEMP.
 
If you do the following:
 
export PHTEMP=xxxx 
 
and run QTP, it would create qtpsave and other temp files in xxxx directory
instead of your home directory.
