>Undecided on which to use. I've an application (quite simple) where I need to maintain member status history (i.e. Active, Suspended, Reinstated, Deceased, etc.). When the member status change, I need to record the date and reason. Would it be wise to use a Memo (appending info everytime there's a change in status) or use a table (adding new records)? Since I rarely use memo type fields, are they often prone to corruption?

How about..

Status.dbf
MemberID char(10)
Status varchar(20)
Status_Date date
Reason varchar(100)

This way you can search/sort easily
