The protection XAB (XABPRO) specifies the ownership,
    accessibility, and protection for a file. Although an application
    program typically uses a XABPRO as input to establish file
    protection when it creates a file, it can also use the XABPRO
    to change file protection when it closes a file. The program that
    opened the file can change file protection when it closes the
    file only if it accessed the file to make modifications and has
    control access.

    The following table lists the symbolic offset, the size in bytes,
    FDL equivalent, and a brief description of each field.
