Doug,
We just started having trouble with memo boxes this week. A project that worked fine under VFP 5.0 is suddenly showing up with blank memo fields. If I look at the data directly I can see the memo. If I look at a view of the table directly it shows the memo. (The memo field displays "Memo" and when you doulble click on it you see the actual memo.) But when I use the same view in a VFP 6.0 app the memo does not show up. However, if I suspend the program and look at the table/view I see the memo field displayed with "Memo" and when I double click it only a blank box appears.

I can't figure out what's up with this. This app did work under VFP 5.0. If you have a clue please let me know.

Thanks,
Bill
