why is this loop only executing once???

[HotaLIsa]

here is my code, it supposed to execute at least 5 times

	ifstream List;
		List.open("Mailings.txt");
		
while(List >> Name >> LName >> Snum >> Address >> Drive>> City>> State >> zip1 >> Envelopesrice >> ounces){
cout << Name << " " << LName << "\n"<< Snum << " " << Address << " " << Drive <<"\n" << City << " " << State << " " << zip1 << "\n";
		}

I'm guessing it's because your data file is too short.

It's hard to tell because you only gave us 4 lines of code and didn't show us the contents of the data file.

"White Bridge Road" is going to mess up your reading, because it's 3 words rather than two.
