A Correct answer
Explanation

In COBOL file status codes, status 42 specifically indicates that a CLOSE operation was attempted on a file that was already closed. This is a standard error condition that prevents duplicate CLOSE operations. File status codes are two-digit numbers where the first digit indicates the general category and the second digit specifies the exact error.
