Sometimes it is necessary to keep GBL files used for Order Manager operations separate from those used for historical analysis.  An example of this is when your code requires that GBL[n] values be ratioed during OM account setup. If the same GBL file were used for both historical testing and for OM operations, processing a historical run might overwrite the previously ratioed values saved in GBL[n] during account setup. Using a separate GBL file for each operation prevents this.
