Wouldn't you, by any chance, be reading an integer value before ? If you do:
-- assuming proper instantiation of Integer_IO
Get (I);
Get_Line (File_Name, Last);

the first Get will leave you in front of the End_Of_Line, and the Get_Line will read an empty string.
In this case, you don't really need a Skip_Line *before the Get_Line*. What you really need is a Skip_Line *after the Get*. Not
exactly the same thing...
