Charles, Buck, and Chuck,

Thanks for enlightening me on the FREE opcode. After your explanation(s),
I vaguely recall seeing it years ago. My RPG work was pretty limited in
those days. All the resources we have around here start at RPG IV.

Nope, he's talking about the FREE opcode...which RPG III had but RPG IV
does not.

FREE (Deactivate a Program)
The FREE operation removes a program from the list of activated

programs,

frees
static storage, and ensures program initialization (first cycle

processing)

the next
time the program is called. It does not close files or unlock data

areas.
