Marc,

Your create statement assumes that there is already a dictionary section.
Are you wanting to create a new data section underneath and existing file
or a new file with both dictionary and data sections.  Also, I agree with
Peter.  Get rid of the double-quotes.  If the latter then try:
EXECUTE \CREATE-FILE DATA \:FILENAME:\1 11\
