One of the things I do a lot is migrate mainframe data to VFP....header records, record layout, et al. If you can post an example of the structure of the text and target table I can help you.


>I have a need to convert formatted text into a database format. The text is always formatted in the same manner, with specific sections always preceded by a unique phrase such as [name]. The form has no ancillary text that needs to be ignored. All sections would go into a
>text field, with one section going into a memo field.
