PARSE ERROR: line number listed is n+1?!?

so i write this script. all syntax errors are taken care of. but now i get a PARSE ERROR wit the line number given as one more than the total number of lines. for example, there's a total of 100 lines in the script. and the error message is PARSE ERROR: 101 line. i check to make sure there are no "phantom" lines after the last one. nothing. anyone else run into this before? -- Leo G.
