>>Hi,

>>Whenever I export a file from VFP 9 application (either using EXPORT TO or Createobject("Excel.Application")) and then open the resulting Excel file, I get the message (as shown in the attached image). Then, when I click on Yes (that is to open it anyway), I don't seem to see any problems with the Excel file content?
>>Why then MS Excel shows this message?
>>TIA

Use xxxx.dbf
>Export to d:\temp\test type xl5
Yes, I know. This is why when the cursor has a memo field I use the Excel.Application (so that the memo would be included in the Excel file). Otherwise, the program is using EXPORT TO TYPE XL5
Thank you.
