 Key Summary                             Up Contents Index Back
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
  Description:
 
     This routine enables you to close a National Language Support (NLS)
     message file that had been previously opened using the
     CBL_NLS_OPEN_MSG_FILE routine.
 
  Parameters on Entry:
 
     message-file-handle     The identifying handle returned when the
                             message file was opened.
 
  Parameters on Exit:
 
     status-code             Indicates whether the routine was successful:
 
                               0 = Success
                              40 = NLS module not initialized
                             404 = Invalid message-file-handle
 
                             If status-code contains a value other than
                             these, it will the number of a run-time error
                             message.
 
     This routine can be used only from a program that was compiled with
     the NLS directive. For more details on National Language Support see
     the chapter National Language Support in your COBOL System Reference.
