EOF() depending loops

eof() doesn't seam to work in empty file in the result is that loops reading the file depending of eof don't end

OpenFile(0,"c:\1.txt")
Debug "Start"
While Eof(0)=0
Debug "i am looping"
Wend
Debug "End"

this one ends immidiatly
or you dont mean this ?

sry but i just figured out for some reason on my computer it returns -1 at when it's at the end
the tool bar help says it would be 1 if it hit the end not -1

Little Tip: True means <>#False. Don't check a=#true, check a<>#false

It would be really nice if #FALSE and #TRUE (and logical returns of same) were fixed values, 0 and 1.

Not many computer languages that work that way... 0 or NULL are always FALSE, but TRUE anything except FALSE...

27 (TRUE)

But it would still be nice ...
