You've lost us a little on this one.  How does this answer the original question about opening a file?

Despite a previous response:

     D varnamepgm      s             10a
     C                   Eval      varnamepgm = 'QEZBCHJB'
     C                   Call      varnamepgm
     C                   Eval      *inLR = *On
