I used Arun Welch's suggestions to use (CLOSEF (CAR OPENP)) and this worked. I had seen the function OPENP but I passed over it when I was looking over the manual. The semantic meaning of OPENP did not key me in to the idea that it returned a list of the open files (or at least the stream id). Thanks for the help. Tim Hines University of Missouri-Kansas City
