And what will work best for me is ...  Gary's idea!

Thanks Gary and everyone else who offered their method. My goal was 
to have as little code as possible in the procedures without worrying 
too much about the additional 'get ready' that is easily absorbed in 
the later benefits.

Using the FileGlobal will allow me to use the call statement with the 
smallest amount of intrusion into the 'real' code.
