>Hi,
> Iam working on a migration tool to migrate data from old tables to new tables (in a new VFP 5.x database). Iam exporting the data from old tables to files and importing the data from files into new tables. Then how to migrate (or export) memo fields? I think memo fileds are stored as nemeric fileds and the actual data is stored somewhere else. How to copy the data as well as the numeric value?

Memo fields are stored internally as pointers to a location in a memo file, but you don't need to be concerned with this when exporting the contents.

You aren't trying this with low level file functions are you?
