Lookup Filed not found error

[Richard D. Williams]

Richard,

Get the info on defile(3) _before_ you do the gosub.

If you are deleting the original defile handle record in the sub-routine 
, the defile lookup is closed before you return.

The program then checks to see if some variable have been set.  Then tests to see if there is a dummy variable ln ne defile(3).  This is where I get the field not found error.
