R help - Mar 2004 - read.table() question

Hi,

input file is empty, and the program stopped running.
Could someone to tell me how to handle this problem. I
want the program to keep running. Thanks.
for i in [1:3]
{  
    file=paste("file", i, ".dat")
    x <- read.data(file)
    x(11)
    plot(x);
    dev.off()
