I am importing from a text file to a table timetemp.dbf
the problem is that part of the text string i am importing is hyperlink
example:
mytext string 122333 end of string. ****the 122333 is hyperlink in the original email from which it is imported.
the next command in programming is

append from mytext.txt type sdf
replace all rinfo with ltrim(rinfo) 

is there a way for me to remove the hyperlink status associated with the numbers.
I thought that text file would not carry the hyperlink tag. but apparently it does.

thanks
k
