I had such an occurrence where someone was creating an additional data-level file on an existing dict/data file set. So he typed:
CREATE-FILE DATA EXISTINGFILE NEWDATALEVEL 1,1 10000,1 assuming that the 1,1 pertained to the dict and the 10000,1 applied to the new datalevel that they were creating. The 10000,1 was ignored While D3 and native systems reply with the base and mod frame numbers of the new file, it wasn't read by the programmer. But when the new datalevel file was put into production, the client called in a few weeks as it got hammered. There was some egg on the face of that programmer, especially reviewing the TCL-STACK file (big brother) for the typed command.
