I usually open files manually in RPG IV, and my habit is to wrap the OPEN in
a MONITOR group (though, naturally, I never expect an error) and test
On-Error for 1216 and 1217; Implicit Open Failed and Explicit Open Failed,
respectively.



I know the different between implicit and explicit, but what is the
difference in RPG? Does it have to do with whether or not the EXTFILE( )
keyword is used on the File statement? Just got curious and couldn't find
it in the manual.
