    Default LISP routine skips line 1 of CSV

    I have a lisp routine that reads points from a CSV file and then adds a block at each point.
    The problem is that this routine keeps skipping the first line of the CSV file.
    Any idea what part of this code is doing that?
    Thank you.

    Code:
    (defun C:IMPNT2 (/ str:list read:block a b c cm d s)
      (defun str:list (str / b)
        (foreach x (reverse (vl-string->list str))
          (cond ((eq x 44) (setq b (cons (list x) b)))
    	    (t
    	     (if (not b)
    	       (setq b (cons (list x) b))
    	       (setq b (cons (cons x (car b)) (cdr b)))
    	     )
    	    )
          )
        )
        (mapcar '(lambda (x) (vl-list->string (vl-remove 44 x))) b)
      )
      (defun read:block (s / e f)
        (while (not f)
          (if (setq e (entsel s))
    	(cond
    	  ((wcmatch (cdr (assoc 0 (entget (car e)))) "INSERT")
    	   (setq f t)
    	  )
    	  (t (alert "Please select BLOCK object."))
    	)
    	(alert "Nothing selected, please try again.")
          )
        )
        (vlax-ename->vla-object (car e))
      )
      (if (not SR:PATH)
        (setq SR:PATH (getvar "dwgprefix"))
      )
      (if
        (and (setq
    	   a (getfiled "Select CSV File" SR:PATH "csv" 16)
    	 )
    	 (setq SR:PATH (strcat (vl-filename-directory a) ""))
    	 (setq a (open a))
    	 (setq c (while	(setq b (read-line a))
    		   (setq c (cons (str:list b) c))
    		 )
    	 )
    	 (setq s (read:block "\nSelect Source Block : "))
        )
         (progn
           (close a)
           (setq cm (getvar 'cmdecho))
           (setvar 'cmdecho 0)

           (foreach	x (cdr (reverse c))
    	 (if (and (> (length x) 1)
    		  (numberp (read (cadr x)))
    		  (numberp (read (caddr x)))
    		  (numberp (read (cadddr x)))
    		  (setq	bk (SR:INBLOCK
    			     (list (* (atof (cadr x)) 1000.)

    Consider your use of CDR here:

    Code:
    ;;<snip>
    
           (foreach	x (cdr (reverse c))
    
    ;;<snip>

    CDR is already in that line of code.
    Do you mean remove it??

    The top line of a CSV often represents the column headers only, so skipping the first line using CDR makes sense, if that is the format of your CSV files.

    However, you're wanting to include the first line of the CSV file you've selected, indicating that is not the format of the CSV file you're attempting to cull... Therefore consider your usage of CDR.

    Cheers
