I too use FOUND() after a LOCATE, for readability/self documentation.

I use EOF() when I'm actually looking for it (e.g. I have a prg that processes a file and deletes records that do not pass muster in a complex validation routine. After returning from the routine I check EOF() for the unlikely case where ALL records did not validate properly).
