That will be useful, thank you.

I really don't think so, but there are a few different options you could try…

read from driver "xyz" until EOF

or

read from driver "xyz" until end

or just

read from driver "xyz"

Although I doubt there will be any difference.

One point, I've just noticed in your original post that you quoted your script as…
   "read from driver xxx until empty"
…You don't show any quotes around the driver name xxx, if this is the case the engine may be treating the driver name as a variable and just seeing it as an empty value.

I think others have noted that this is one area where the later versions of LiveCode are less forgiving than earlier versions, so if this is the case adding quotes around the driver name may help.
