File numbering



Title: File numbering

Is there a way to obtain "the next valid free file number" when running SQR?  In Visual Basic, we can use the code:

   FileNumber = FreeFile   ' Get unused file number.
   Open "TEST.DAT" For Output As FileNumber

I'm writing a "common" routine that can be called by many SQRs, and I don't want to have to hard code the file number.

TIA,
