Hi,

If you use the same file status for more than one file
the variable will be over written with the latest file related operation
of any of those files.

I meant the status will be over written with the status of the
latest operation done on the one of the files for which you are using the
same status variable.

Hi,
It will be the latest operation file status. Every time it will be overwritten by the latest opration file status. so it belongs to the file on which the latest file opration has been performed.
