Closing a VSAM File through REXX

Hi,

I have a cobol pgm which uses a VSAM file. If the pgm abends, the VSAM File opened is not closed.

And also I tried to free the file using TSO free cmd after the abend. But it is not freeing the file.

I have to logoff and login again each time when the pgm abends.

Is there any way to close an opened VSAM File through REXX?
