Hello everyone. I am new to this forum. I came across it while doing an Internet search for Visual Logic assistance.

Does anyone know how I would indicate in a post-test WHILE loop to continue reading the Input file until it reaches the end of the file? I am just testing something very basic. I have created a text file containing people's names. I am asking the program to read the text file, then output each name, so long as the program has not reached the end of the file. I am receiving an error when the program reaches the WHILE loop. I don't know what the proper expression is. I've attached a file showing what I have.

Thanks in advance for any assistance that you can provide.

"not end of file" is not acceptable logic. Replace that by requesting an input from the user, something along the lines of "0 to end" and then in the while loop expression create something along these lines "input<>0". The "<>" means does not equal.
