Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

  Message:      RT142
 
  Text:         File not open - cannot be closed
 
  Severity:     Recoverable
 
  Explanation:  You have tried to close a file which is not open which
                is impossible to achieve.
 
  Resolution:   You can abandon your attempt to close the relevant
                file and continue to run your program. However, as this
                error implies that your program contains a mistake in its
                logic, you may wish to close any open files, execute a
                STOP RUN statement and then recode.
