OK, but Jeff did say:
"I think it would work if I first rebuilt the freechain."
So if he does that, record no. 1 should be the first record in the
freechain and the code should work if modified to:

[... if lookup to record 1 fails ...]
If:
Then: aystem "freechn filename"
If:
Then:	lookup filename r=free -e
If:
Then: lookup - r=rn -e
If:
Then: return
