Turbo C's fscanf()

Thanks everybody for your help. I'd like to clarify a point on page
203 of TC's library reference manual. It states that ...scanf returns
the number of fields processed or EOF if trying to process @ EOF.
In TC, EOF is -1. (I had assumed it was a NULL, like end-of-string,
WORNG!) 

So all's I have to now is:
result = fscanf(...
while (result != EOF) {
.
.
.
result = fscanf(...
}

Thanks again, from me and my end users!
