Hi I have a subroutine that WRITESEQ to a record in a type 1 file called INTEGRITY.
Is there anyway I can open the file once (in the subroutine) and thereafter use the same file handle (to avoid opening the file each time the subroutine is called) ? All the code on this site opens the file in the calling routine and passes the handle to the subroutine. I want to rather make the subroutine a stand-alone, not requiring more than the subroutine call added to the calling programs. I have a suspicion I can use named common - if so, does this have to be declared in the calling routine (which would negate my purpose!). Any advice? ------- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
