>I'm having a heck of a time getting text into the report writer from a simple text file. I have a letter that was composed in Lotus WordPro, so I saved as text file and figured I could just copy it to clipboard and then paste it in the report writer as text, but no such luck. VFP is only allowing me to copy in a couple of lines of text at a time. This will work, but it seems there should be a more productive approach to doing something that simple. What's the secret to getting text into the report writer from a text file? Don't say don't use VFP report writer...my copy of CR isn't here yet.

Would it be simpler to move text to memo field and use this field in report writer?
