RE: Too many open files for this process

0633.00 C                   Eval      Rc = Close(Err_Flag)
0634.00
0635.00 C                   If        Err_Flag < 0
0636.00 C                   ExSr      *Pssr
0637.00 C                   EndIf
This code is wrong. It's probably not what's causing the original problem that you posted about, but it's definitely wrong.
The above statement sets RC to -1 if an error occurred. It does not change the value of Err_Flag (in fact, it can't change it, since you should have the VALUE keyword on that parameter) 

So instead of checking Err_Flag < 0, you should be checking RC < 0.
In the earlier routine where you call Close(), you don't appear to check to see if it fails at all, so it could be failing and you wouldn't know about it.
