Thanks, Alex - of course it's "the result" that I want - but I still like my
syntax! What language am I half-remembering?

I liked your syntax too - though it did require a certain amount of clairvoyance or mind-reading to determine which file you wanted the "eof" test to apply to :-) It certainly feels familiar - but can't remember which it's most likely to be. Some Pascal variant, maybe ?


I've tried another method that I thought might be faster - instead of
reading a chunk at a time and popping it into a field on a new card, why not
gulp the whole file into a variable, then get each item as a chunk?

In fact it's slower. Ah well...
That is kind of surprising.
If it's convenient, could you send the two sets of code so I can see what the differences are, please ?
