Hi,

I have an array (say [0..50] ), and I want to read
a file of integers (the quantity of which is UNKOWN).

Right now it works ok, but the rest of the array fills with
zeroes, because I am using a test of DONE, which is always
true for INTEGERS.



REPEAT
    ReadInt(array[i]);
    INC(i);
UNTIL (NOT Done);


it reads all the numbers, then fills the rest of the array
because the rest of the file is blanks (it thinks are 0's)



any graceful way around this ???



TIA
