I have a piece of code held within a table called rules in a memo field called rule. I want to execute that code in the field within a program.

The code stored in my memo field is:

SELECT packages
SCAN WHILE NOT EOF()
	IF 'TECHNICAL'$mainkey AND emailed=.f.
		replace action WITH 'Send Email to Design'
	ENDIF
ENDSCAN

My program basically calls:

SELECT rules
lcrules=""
lcrules=rules.rules
&lcrules

But nothing happens. My code works fine its just the calling of my rule does not work. Can anybody help me please?

Many Thanks
