Hmm.. thanks for giving me a code sample, but I wonder why it worked
before, like I say, the procedure works in a program, I just cannot
remember which ver. I assume a quick grep for changes to eof() would tell
me when, and by whom, but I'm not really that interested in when, but why
it was changed.
Thanks again.
