BLAPP is coded strangely and so initially opens the data set with only 
the name parameters set.  That causes the FQMATC message I suspect.  But 
then BLAPP depends on low-level messages to tell about errors and so one 
cannot tell which of the many OUVOPN calls is actually failing.
The FREQID parameter is put in the object during the initialization 
phases (after the first open call).  But the SUBARRAY adverb never gets 
put in the object.  That might be the real problem.  Let me work over 
the task some to improve the error reporting and to put the SUBARRAY
adverb in.  A MNJ tomorrow will let us try again on your data.
