re Free in Rpg IV

If you're using FREE,  Don't.  It never did what you probably thought it 
did.  It just closed the program.  It did not close files and a lot of 
other resources.    Either,  Have some kind of communciation to the program
like a "TERMINATE" Y,N flag passed as a parameter to really shut the 
program down(with *INLR *ON) or start using Activatation Groups and 
then use the RCLACTGRP command.   

Also Nobody should be using RCLRSC (*CALLER) either for that matter.

It blows TSR's(RPG utility programs that don't set on *INLR) out of the 
water.
