David,
If you are doing a BASIC CLEARFILE rather than a CLEAR.FILE from ECL, you
have the file open. If you have a dynamic file that is has a dat002 or an
over002, those will be deleted when cleared, except that you have them open
and Windows will not let you delete them while you have them open.
Close the file and execute a CLEAR.FILE from within your Basic program...

Subject: [U2] [UD] Clear File on a Dynamic File
I'm issuing a CLEARFILE command on a Dynamic File (part of a conversion!)
and getting
Errno=13: Permission denied
Deleting dynamic file c:\unidata\dataaccount\dynfilename\dat002 error
I'm guesssing this means this 'dat' file is still floating around on the
system after the ClearFile where it normally would be zapped.
What's my downside here? Anyone have an idea? Is it 'safe' to proceed?
I suspect my Windows permissions don't allow me to 'delete' a file.
