I would be willing to provide some input on the topic, rather than [a link to] any official documentation; I know of none. However, on Midrange-L, since file open is not specific to any HLL. Note also that a file open is somewhat generic; i.e. a "file" may be a STMF, a DLO, a database, or some variety of a device file. Presumably the interest is in the database file.member open, of which I can provide the best information versus the others.
