The END OF FILE FOUND UNEXPECTEDLY usually happens when I used indexed
files, but you would not be sorting them is you used an index. Assuming
that you can DISPLAY the file, then you must have a trashed file with an
EOF character somehow inserted. If not, then kludge it by issuing a USE
or two in order to close the file, then USE it again and SORT to your
destination. A little more information would pinpoint the proper kludge.
