sure I'm having a brain fart but the code snippet below always generates an
IOException(read error).  The file and and permissions are ok.  It reads the
first line writes the new file then generates the exception.  I'd appreciate
any help.

                         if (ssnArray[n].equals (dataLine.substring(pos, 9))){
                            ps.println(dataLine);

                      ps.close();
                   }
