I'm definitely testing for FEOF(INVOICE) (where INVOICE is the handle I assigned when I used FOPEN to open the text file)

I found that if I test FEOF(INVOICE) prior to the INSERT INTO code, it returns false, but immediately following the INSERT INTO code, it returns true.

Unless I've completely lost my mind, I'm quite sure that I've used this type of routine before (parse a text file, store the stuff I need into variables, insert the variables into a table, read in the next line of the text file, wash, rinse, repeat, etc)

I looked back over the code a few minutes ago and can't seem to find where the problem is.
