Re: using files within subprocedures

     Interesting.  The last time I answered this question, I proposed a 
     static indicator variable:
     
          if      not FileOpen
          open    custmast
          eval    FileOpen = *on
          endif
     
     ...and was told that the %open BIF would do it (I was used to v4r1 at 
     the time).  I'm surprised to hear that %open would let you down.

Just an FYI.  I used this method and also tried using the flag for the INFDS 
and it wasn't always correct.  I don't remember the exact circumstances, but 
the file was closed and the system thought it was open.
     
So, test test test.
