why not something like....

read file;
dow not %eof;
do stuff
read file
enddo

No need for a second control structure if you do one read prior to
entering the loop.

I do it the way you don't.

dow '1';
read file;
if eof;
leave;
endif;
processdata;
enddo;

That's MY opinion and I'm sticking to it. <g>
