This kind of error often occurs when end-of-line
characters are not in the file. This can occur,
for example, by improper FTP transfer of an ASCII
file from a Mac to a PC. Sometimes popping the file
into a word processor on the target machine and saving
it as a text file will get things sorted out.

This doesn't exhaust the list of possibilities,
of course, but I'm almost certain the problem is not
with Craig's code. :-)

Cheers,

David
