When i code: append from myflie.csv to myNewDbf type csv - myNewDbf has some memo fields. apparently when i append from the csv, it does not input the cells into the memo fields on myNewDbf and therefore it skips those columns which kinda throws the data off, if that makes sense..any ideas ?

Assuming that the CSV you're importing from doesn't have multi-line fields and doesn't have fields longer than 255 characters, this simplest way might be to create a temporary cursor with the same structure as your database table but with the memo fields replaced with c(255)

Then Copy the CSV into the cursor and then APPEND from the cursor to your database table.
