[File_Control] ... [/File_Control]

[File_Control] ... [/File_Control] a series of related file tags. Any files accessed within these container tags will not be unloaded until the closing container tag is reached.

The [File_CurrentError] tag only functions within the [File_Control] ... [/File_Control] tags.

It is important to use these container tags around any series of file tags that use the same file repeatedly. Otherwise, Lasso has to close and reopen the file after each [File_...] tag which can greatly reduce performance.
