- It worked on my computer. I suspect that you are using the
- .FILES word to see if it was opened; it wouldn't show up there
- with the code you use. It actually is opened though, if you
- execute the following code you'll get the DOS handle:
-
- ofile >hndle c@ .
-
- What you might try is substituting $HOPEN for HOPEN in your
- OPEN_OFILE definition which will put the handle in the current
- SEQHANDLE location (and subsequently show up when you .FILES);
- but there's really no need if you use OFILE to access it and
- don't need to reset the input buffer and close a previous
- file.
