That might be what's happening, usually safest to always make sure you have a blank line at the end of the file.
If that's not the problem then you could start vi with the -b option, that should show any non-printable characters in the file (I think). Cheers, Tom -- Class, that's the only thing that counts in life. Class. Without class and style, a man's a bum; he might as well be dead. -- "Bugsy" Siegel
