One, How does this have three reads?
*inlr=*on;
dow ReadFile(Myfile);
  // your processing here;
EndDo;

I believe he was commenting on your second example, to the original poster,
which had three %EOF's in.  Personally I would use that "traditional"
structure although I'd switch *INLR on after the EndDo and not before.
Having said that, I think your use of a ReadFile() procedure is a great idea
- wish I'd thought of it.

Two, In your example, what happens if I add this ITER line?
*inlr=*on;
read myfile;
Dow not %eof(myFile);
  // your processing here;
    iter;
  read myFile;
EndDo;

I understand that you're drawing attention to the fact that an infinite loop
would occur if the ITER was inserted before the second READ, but I would
hope that any programmer worth his salt would spot the problem pretty
quickly.

Regards

Jonathan
