Help reading from a data file 1

[Deckster]

Trying to read data into a structure...afraid I might have it ALL wrong. Here's the code snippets:

typedef struct
{
char LineNumber[MAX];
char StructureName[MAX];
double Span;
} HiVLine[MAX];

...

int num = 0;

while(fscanf(cfPtr, "%s%s%d", HiVLine[num].LineNumber, HiVLine[num].StructureName, HiVLine[num].Span) != NULL)
   {
   num++;
   }

Try

while ( num < MAX &&
        fscanf(cfPtr, "%s%s%d", HiVLine[num].LineNumber, HiVLine[num].StructureName, &HiVLine[num].Span) == 3 )

Salem - This is what I get on compile:

: 1506-046 (S) Syntax error.

any ideas?

Without knowing what your operating system and compiler is, and a paste of the code which you tried, I've no idea.

Usually means you've missed a quote, comma, bracket, parenthesis.
