RE: Odd handle switching behavior in ILE RPG

David,
In order to not run out of handles, it's better if you get the original ID's
handle first (at 0) and then get the new ID's handle.  That way you can
still switch back to the original if a problem occurs anywhere farther down.
I would:

0. Get current ID handle
1. Save current user profile
2. Get new user id handle
3. Switch to new user id handle
4. Do stuff
5. Switch to handle of original user id
6. Release new ID handle
7. Release handle of original user id
