I was playing with the COPY TO command when I made the post because I figured this was my best bet.

Here's how I got it fixed;
1. Used the table EXCLU, and issued a PACK. It packed the table, and gave the error as it was trying to pack the memo table.
2. Did a COPY TO myGoodTable FOR NOT DELETED()

This seems to of worked. What I found suprising is that the FOR NOT DELETED() was required for this to work, otherwise - even though the .dbf had been packed - the COPY TO command was still getting all the deleted stuff from the .fpt - so the ending .dbf was smaller - but the darn .fpt file wouldn't shrink.

Anyway - all is well now and the app won't blow up.
Thanks everyone...

I have 4 gig of memory in the machine that's trying to perform the PACK. I'm extreamly concerned because this .fpt file is going to pass the 2gig limit in less than three days if I don't do something.
