     RemoveFile closes the file specified by <pFile> by removing the
     file buffer and all its data from memory.
 
     RemoveFile is the opposite of AddFile. AddFile initializes a new
     buffer; RemoveFile deletes an existing buffer. RemoveFile does not
     force the writing of the file buffer to disk. You should always do
     a FileWrite before doing a RemoveFile unless you want to discard
     any modifications done to the file.
 
     NOTE: RemoveFile does not delete the file from disk. It only
           cancels the knowledge PWB has of the file.
