   <para>The <emphasis role="bold">GetExpandLogicalFileName
        </emphasis>function returns a string containing the expanded logical
        filename (ncluding the default scope, if the filename does not contain
        a leading tilde), all in lowercase. This is the same value as is used
        internally by DATASET and OUTPUT.</para>
