I didn't word this very well...

To further clarify, I should have said that when writing to the physical
file, I simply indicate the line number in a field.  Then when the
report program reads the file it checks for line 1 to start a new page.
But, in all cases, the highest line number in the file is 66.  So, in
this case no overflow checking "should" be necessary if everything is
set at 66.  In order to prevent the error from occurring I have to limit
my highest line number in the file to 64.  That strikes me as odd.
