I uncovered an issue in 10.1 that may be an issue to some.

If one does a FILELOCK and then opens the File again then the File Lock
is dropped.  This may occur where some one has the file variables in
common, and may open the file again in a subroutine, where they are
unsure if the File had been previously been opened.

This would not be picked up in testing, but could cause errors in file
updates because the file is no longer locked someone else could update
it at the time.

I detected this because I was doing Transaction processing and the file
was reopened due to a bug with FILEINFO function. This caused a Fatal
due to records not having the right Lock levels.

I have a case open with IBM, but this may be an issue for others to
check their software.  (This occurred on Windows 2003 and in PICK
Flavour)
