Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong.  I thought I could
use a message file to allow sequential reads of records in a file,
but I only seem to be able to get the first record.
Here is my test command file.  tmp8 contains 4 identifiable records.

build tmp9;rec=-80,,f,ascii;msg
copy tmp8,tmp9;yes
input _a < tmp9
input _b < tmp9
input _c < tmp9
echo !_c

The echo shows the first record. Can someone point to my error?
Thanks.
